Hi there - I am thinking of visiting Zanzibar in October. Anyone got any tips, advice, etc? Many thanks, There are so many possbilities that you need to give us some hints as to your interests and budget. Among the possibilities a - Beach activities such as swimming and snorkelling - Scuba diving - Wind surfing - Native 'dhow' trips - Dolphin excursions - Visit to Prison Island - Visit to Spice Gardens - Visit to Mangapwani Slave Caves (and a nice seafood lunch by Serena) - Old Anglican Cathereral is a must - www/safari.cc/znz.html - House of Wonders, Old Arab Fort - Forodhani Park (especially at night when the food vendors are out) - Antique shopping - Art shopping - The remote quite of the Chumbe Island Coral Park - The opulant exclusivity of Mnemba Island Zanzibar has something for everyone.

Gary www.safari.cc Gary, I wish I was going again! You have reminded me of all the wonders of Zanzibar. For anyone who IS lucky enough to go, don`t miss the coconut seafood dish at the Serena. For me for the moment I shall just have to look at the photos and postcards. Kwaheri for now. Pat -- Pat Anderson |

I am sooo envious - we went in 2001, and there really were too many great things to see and do... It really depends on what your interests are - Cultural (Fishing, spice farms) Historical (slave trade, religions) Beach and Snorkelling (East coast) Wildlife (Dolphins, red colobus monkeys...) If you can focus in a bit, I'll tell you more!! Some of our photos are at - http://www.tomalin.org/bedford/africa/index.htm Mail me direct if you want specifics (My access to newsgroups is sporadic to say the least. Today's a good day!) Take out the nospamspam bit... Also, David Else's book 'Zanzibar' is a good buy, if you can find it. Cheers Charles -- www.wildviews.com Natural History Photography "Liz" wrote in message ...
