Itinerary in detail

Every Mikumi Holiday Safaris trip is tailored to your personal preferences and interests. Below you’ll find a sample itinerary to inspire your own custom-designed journey.

1. Arrival in Stone Town

Your Zanzibar adventure begins as you touch down at Abeid Amani Karume International Airport, where your private guide will welcome you with a refreshing coconut drink. A short transfer brings you to Tembo Hotel, a beautifully restored boutique property in the heart of Stone Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

After settling in, take a leisurely stroll through the winding alleys where the scent of cloves and cardamom lingers in the air. As evening falls, head to Forodhani Gardens, where the night market comes alive with sizzling seafood skewers and the famous Zanzibar pizza.

2. Spice Tour & Jozani Forest → Beach Transfer

After breakfast, journey into Zanzibar’s lush countryside for a spice tour at a working plantation. Walk among cinnamon, vanilla, and nutmeg trees while learning how these “brown gold” crops shaped the island’s history. Taste fresh tropical fruits like jackfruit and lychee before enjoying a traditional Swahili lunch.

In the afternoon, visit Jozani Forest, home to the endangered red colobus monkeys. These playful primates are unique to Zanzibar and often come remarkably close to visitors. A wooden boardwalk leads you through a magical mangrove ecosystem, where you might spot colorful crabs scuttling among the roots.

As the sun begins to dip, transfer north to Langi Langi Beach Hotel, your luxury beachfront retreat in Nungwi. Check in to your ocean-view suite and toast to your arrival with a sunset cocktail on the beach.
