An island located just off the coast of Tanzania in the vast Indian Ocean , Zanzibar promises luxury vacations that invigorate every sense. As part of the romantic 'Spice Islands', this exotic African nation boasts tropical breezes carrying the scent of nutmeg, cinnamon and cloves. A one-time trading post on the Spice Route and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the capital city of Stone Town is Zanzibar's colonial crown jewel. The history of the capital's Arab, British and Swahili influences provides a fascinating alternative to white-sand beaches for a beguiling luxury vacation.
