Workation in Zanzibar: the essentials

Stone Town, the old quarter of Zanzibar City, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site of coral-stone houses, carved doors and former sultans' palaces, left from the years when the archipelago was a sovereign state and a centre of the spice and slave trades. Cloves, nutmeg and cinnamon still grow inland, and tourism has climbed to more than 900,000 visitors a year. The semi-autonomous region is largely Muslim, so modest dress is expected in town and Ramadan changes the rhythm of daily life. Most visitors head for the beaches in the north and east. Abeid Amani Karume International Airport is about 6 km from Stone Town, and ferries cross to Dar es Salaam.
