Zanzibar

Zanzibar Tour Packages from UAE

Some holidays are all about ticking landmarks off a list. Zanzibar is different. It invites you to slow down, wander through the historic streets of Stone Town, spend lazy afternoons on white-sand beaches, and watch traditional dhow boats sail across the Indian Ocean at sunset. Our Zanzibar tour packages from UAE are designed and customized around the way you want to travel. Whether you're planning a romantic escape, a family holiday, or simply looking for a relaxing island break, we take care of your flights, hotel, transfers, sightseeing, and Arabic-speaking support from the moment you book until you return home. With every tour Zanzibar itinerary, you'll enjoy the perfect balance between cultural discoveries and beach relaxation without worrying about the planning.

Our Zanzibar Package

No two travelers imagine Zanzibar the same way. Some want to stay inside the charming streets of Stone Town, exploring its rich history, spice markets, and UNESCO-listed architecture. Others picture waking up to turquoise waters in Nungwi or Paje, spending their days snorkeling, diving, or simply relaxing on the beach. Instead of offering one fixed itinerary, we help you choose the areas, hotel category, and experiences that match your travel style, so your holiday feels personal rather than pre-packaged.

Why Makani

Why Book Your Zanzibar Holiday with Makani

Zanzibar requires its own local travel insurance on top of any policy you already hold, and beach-area ATMs in places like Nungwi and Paje run out of cash more often than travelers expect. Makani sorts both before you land, rather than leaving you to find out at immigration or from an empty cash register.

①

The Only Gold-Classified Agency in the UAE

Makani holds the UAE Department of Tourism’s Golden Classified Certification, backed by 22 years of hands-on experience arranging trips for UAE travelers.

②

Direct Partnerships, No Middlemen

We contract directly with hotels and airlines, so you’re not paying for extra commission layers baked into a generic booking site.

③

A Route Planned Before You Book

Every Zanzibar itinerary accounts for local insurance requirements and cash planning between Stone Town and the beach.

FAQ

UAE citizens (Emirati passport holders) need a Tanzania visa to enter Zanzibar, available as an e-visa applied for online or a visa on arrival, valid for up to 90 days. Zanzibar also requires its own local travel insurance from the Zanzibar Insurance Corporation on top of any international policy, checked on arrival alongside the standard visa documents.

June to October offers the driest, most comfortable weather for beaches and Stone Town alike. The short rains fall around November, and the long rains between March and May bring heavier, more frequent downpours, though prices and crowds both drop.

The official currency is the Tanzanian Shilling (TZS), though US dollars are widely accepted at hotels, resorts, and tour operators. Cash is still essential outside Stone Town, since ATMs in beach areas like Nungwi and Paje frequently run out, and only US dollar notes printed after 2006 are generally accepted for exchange.

Swahili is the main language, and English is widely spoken in hotels, resorts, and tourist areas across the island.

Yes, Zanzibar is generally safe for tourists, with low rates of violent crime. Zanzibar's culture is conservative and predominantly Muslim, so modest dress is expected outside resort beaches, particularly in Stone Town and local villages.

Stone Town, Prison Island, and Jozani Forest rank among Zanzibar's most visited sites, alongside the beaches of Nungwi and the reefs of Mnemba Atoll.

Zanzibar has a tropical climate with temperatures staying between 25°C and 32°C nearly year-round. The dry season from June to October is the most popular time to visit, while the long rains from March to May bring the heaviest downpours.
