🇹🇿 Zanzibar Through a Different Lens: Where Culture Shines 🌍✨

After our Kenya safari, we chose Zanzibar over Diani Beach—despite the longer journey—and it was 100% worth it! Here’s why: 🌟 Key Takeaways: 1️⃣ Visa Hack: Single-entry Kenya/Tanzania visa worked fine (no double-entry needed!). 2️⃣ No Yellow Fever Check: Neither country asked for proof (but always check requirements!). 3️⃣ Perfect Weather: Surprisingly cool for a tropical island—like a summer escape! ☀️🌬️ 4️⃣ Beach Vibes: Sea/water sports? Just okay (not as stunning as Palawan, Philippines). But the culture? ✨Magic! Locals workout at sunset, kids play in the waves—pure joy. 5️⃣ Stone Town Love: Most say "half a day is enough"—we stayed 24hrs & still wanted more! 2 USD coconuts, labyrinth alleys, and layers of history. 🥥🏛️ 6️⃣ Village Life: Venturing into local villages showed us Zanzibar’s raw, unfiltered soul. 7️⃣ Food Warning: Tourist-area restaurants are pricey ($15 salads?!) + hit-or-miss. Research hard! 🌍 Why Zanzibar Wins: It’s not just another beach getaway—it’s where African, Arab, and Indian cultures collide in the most vibrant way. Slow down, wander, and talk to locals—that’s the real gold. #IslandLife #TravelDifferently #ZanzibarVibes #StoneTown #AfricanAdventure #SlowTravel
