WHY ZANZIBAR IS THE PERFECT PLACE FOR AN EXOTIC HONEYMOON

The honeymoon is one of the most special times in the lives of newlywed couples. A honeymoon trip is the first holiday a newly married couple takes together. So this destination has to be the best. Choosing the perfect romantic honeymoon destination that gives privacy to the couple and has endless beautiful views is often difficult for most newlyweds. If a destination has all the things that they want, then it is too far out of budget. While if a certain destination meets the budget, it is way too touristy and doesn’t give that perfect fairy tale honeymoon vibe.

Yup Africano brings to you one such perfect destination, “Zanzibar”. Zanzibar not only has beautiful and serene beaches but also has a lot of shopping avenues and is very budget-friendly. So hop on. Read the amazing wonders of Zanzibar that make it the perfect place for an exotic honeymoon destination, but before that, let us give a brief introduction to Zanzibar Island.

About Zanzibar

Zanzibar is known for its spice trade the world over. Zanzibar has had settlers from so many different countries and cultures; this gives Zanzibar Island a unique touch. From food to architecture and even the local language, you can find the influence of different cultures here. Apart from serene beaches, you can visit UNESCO world heritage sites here, you can visit the house of a musical legend, and, of course, the spice farms that grow some of the world’s best spices. The island consists of two main islands, Pemba and Unguja (officially known as Zanzibar). Now if all this Zanzibar information is making you drool and you want to visit this island, then Yup Africano can arrange Zanzibar tour packages from Dubai for you at very attractive rates. Let us see the unique places of Zanzibar.

Prison Island

Hahaha! Don’t worry, no one will lock you up here. Prison Island is a former island where prisoners were locked up, but since Tanzania gained freedom, this island has been converted from a prison to a beautiful and dreamy destination for tourists, especially honeymoon couples. You can take a 20-minute boat ride from the main island of Zanzibar to this romantic island and can spend an entire day over here. You can also arrange a customized tour with Yup Africano where you can first book a custom Tanzania holiday package from Dubai and then, in the end, add a visit to Zanzibar Island to your itinerary.

The prison island is famous for its giant tortoises; an average tortoise is 100 years old. These giant tortoises were imported from Seychelles in the early 19th century, and ever since then, the tortoises have made prison island their home. You can also explore the prison ruins and other natural wonders of this island.

Visit the Zanzibar Butterfly Centre

Zanzibar is home to many tropical gardens, and one of them is this butterfly center spread across a huge area. You can feed butterflies over here and you can watch all stages of the complete life cycle of many different species of butterflies. This butterfly center is one of a kind and unique on the entire African continent. If you and your partner love being active on social media, then visiting this place is a must-have. Don’t forget to add a visit to the Butterfly Center to your holiday packages from Dubai to Tanzania.

Visit Rock Restaurant: One of the Most Unique Restaurants on Earth

Situated on a rock that isn’t too large, this restaurant is more famous for its unique location than its food. Most honeymoon couples ensure that their Zanzibar holiday from Dubai includes a visit to this unique restaurant. Don’t forget to book your tables in advance as this place is usually full for days. Must-try dishes at this place are jumbo prawns, crab spaghetti, and homemade tagliolini. Couples love to spend sunsets here at this restaurant while savoring delicious food.

Experience Swimming With Dolphins

The Kizimkazi area on Zanzibar Island is known for its friendly and cute dolphins. This region has shallow waters, and dolphins visit this place to socialize and in search of food. But to be lucky enough to see dolphins in action, you have to wake up early and explore this area early in the morning between 5:00 am and 6:00 am. Dolphin tours are one of the most popular couple activities on this island. You can arrange customized group trips to Dubai with your friends to visit this amazing island, as it is a popular activity among friends as well. Dolphin lovers, animal lovers, and honeymoon couples all love to go on dolphin tours on this island equally.

Take a Culinary Ride

If both of you are foodies, then this island is a blessing for you. As we mentioned earlier, over different periods, many different people from various cultures and backgrounds have made Zanzibar their home and settled here. This has given this tiny island some amazing mouth-watering dishes and a burst of flavor. One such unique dish you can find here is Bunny Chow. Don’t go wrong with the name; the dish doesn’t contain rabbits. But it is a unique recipe that is formed by mixing local Zanzibar flavors with those of the Indian Gujarati trading community. The bunny’s name is derived from the trading community that is back in India called Bania, so Bania became Bunny in Zanzibar and we got a tasty dish that has flavors of Indian and Zanzibar both at the same time. If you are one of those couples who like to travel with a group of friends, even on their honeymoon, then you can arrange Dubai customized tours to Zanzibar at amazing rates with Yup Africano.

Concluding Lines

If you are searching for a dreamy honeymoon destination in Africa then Zanzibar is a must-visit place for you. You will get the most romantic and memorable honeymoon on this island. Most people first take a 7-8 days Tanzania safari package from Dubai and then extend their Tanzanian safari to relax on Zanzibar Island. You can create your custom itinerary with Yup Africano and have the best honeymoon.
