🇹🇿 Zanzibar 3D2N Travel Guide

1️⃣ Visa » Visa on Arrival: $50 USD (cash or VISA) » Insurance: $44 USD (new policy since Oct 2024—mandatory!) 😇 Pro tip: If you have an e-visa, maybe skip insurance with a screenshot… but not at Zanzibar Airport—they double-check! 2️⃣ Accommodation 🏨 My Blue Hotel Zanzibar (4-star) » Price: ~1,300 RMB/night » Pros: Beachfront 🏖️, 3 pools (including infinity pool!), beautiful surroundings » Cons: Slow service (took 3 requests for an adapter!), no toothbrush/toothpaste 😤 3️⃣ Transport 🚗 NO taxis! Pre-book private drivers: » Airport → Nungwi hotels: $40 USD (vs. $65 for airport taxis—walk 800m to the crossroads for better deals!) 📱 Recommended drivers (WhatsApp): ‪+255 772 821 834‬ / +255 778 619 966 / +255 773 450 971‬ 4️⃣ Currency 💵 Exchange to Tanzanian Shillings (TZS)! » Better rates than USD (locals prefer shillings). » $100 USD/person = enough for 3 days. » Best spot: Airport crossroads shops (rate ~1:2600). 5️⃣ SIM Card 📱 At airport exits: » 4.5GB = $10 USD / 9.8GB = $20 USD 🤳 3 days? 4.5GB is plenty (hotels have Wi-Fi!). I wasted money on 9.8GB… 😑 6️⃣ Itinerary 🌅 Day 1: » Sunset Dhow Cruise ($20 USD/pax) – 4:30 PM departure, 2h ride (book directly with locals on the beach!). 🐬 Day 2: » Dolphin Tour + Snorkeling (85,000 TZS / ~$33 USD) – 9 AM to 2 PM (haggle hard with beach vendors!). 🏰 Day 3: » Stone Town + Prison Island (Turtles!) + Airport Transfer ($40 USD/pax) Stone Town: Worth it for architecture! Prison Island: Meh—just a quick turtle zoo. 🐢 (Skip if short on time!) #Zanzibar #TravelTips #IslandVibes #BudgetTravel #AfricaAdventure
