As the crew journey from Dar es Salaam, they take the over a 2-hour ferry ride to Zanzibar. BTW, the ferry ride would run you about $35. Bring cash,  most places are cardless, and you will need to visit some of the limited ATMs on the island if you don't have cash. They reviewed the Airbnb, which was on the beach, and included the option for a private chef, who cooked for them on one of the nights they stayed in Zanzibar.  The crew gave rave reviews of the excursion they did with  Safari Blue Zanzibar.  Asshur states that this was one of, if not the best, excursions that he's had. The spread of food was one of the highlights of this excursion.  Do not forget to visit the famed Rock Restaurant. It is an experience you will never forget, with breathtaking views that will be etched in your memory.  Furthermore, Stone Town is a must. Please make sure that you stay here maybe a few days, and explore. We stayed at Shoki Shoki House; it was not a bad experience, it is not luxurious but it was nice. If not here, there are tons of other places to select from.  This hotel was centrally located to everything, particularly where you can see the famed guys jumping off the jetty. It is a must-see.  Do a walking tour and also visit the Slave Market; this sacred space is both emotional and educational.   Enjoy!
