Were you an avid Man vs. Wild watcher back in the day? If so, you would probably remember how Bear Grylls used to bump into these tribal people while exploring African forests. They used to greet, feed, and help him in his adventures, which was truly fascinating. Many people in front of television sets also wanted to go on such an adventure.
If you were one of them, consider yourself lucky because your wish has been fulfilled. The Masaai World Village is a cultural site and home to the Maasai tribe. They are a Nilotic ethnic group predominantly found in Kenya and Tanzania. And this site is on top of our ‘to visit’ list!
At the Masaai World, you will get acquainted with the lifestyle, history, and practices of the tribe. You will have the opportunity to live like them for a whole day. Dance your heart alongside the locals who’ll perform their local dance, Aigus, to welcome you. Try using their hunting tools and in case you’re a foodie, try the local cuisine.
Masaai World can be tiring, and you truly deserve to relax after it. In that case, there’s no better option than Kendwa Rocks Beach Resort. This sea-facing holiday spot has all the amenities you’d look for in a top-notch hotel. Pools, gyms, spas, and much more.
The restaurants at the resort will treat you to delicious local cuisine while you sit at the beach and enjoy quality time. Once you’re done unwinding, jump into action and give your best at the Zanzibar Water Sports. Dive into the sea and watch the dolphins swim right next to you!
There’s a wide array of rooms available. From pool-facing bungalows for the whole family to economy rooms with a cultural aesthetic. Choose the option that suits you the best. The theme rooms, however, are the stars of the show. You can choose from Historical Suites, Coral Stone Bungalows, Arab-African Style Suites, and Beach Houses.
This UNESCO World Heritage site is guaranteed to leave you stunned by its rich history. Stone Town is the oldest neighborhood of Zanzibar city and therefore has immense historic significance. Going through the country’s history, you’ll find it has been home to people from different cultures. They include Arabs, Europeans, Persians as well as Indians. You can find trails of all these cultures in this small town.
The Arab Fort is a true architectural masterpiece from the 17th century with an intriguing history. The fort also has a theater which is still used today. The Anglican Cathedral Church hints towards the British rule of the town. It is an equally appalling site for history enthusiasts. Hamamni Persian Baths are another hidden jewel of the town. They can take you back to ancient Persia with their conventional designs.
This site is often referred to as ‘Paradise in Africa’ by various Youtubers. Away from the hustle and bustle of urban life, you can sit back and relax at this mini-island.
You can start your day by exploring the beautiful beach. The stunning charm of this beach reserve compels you to take some wonderful pictures. Getting to the sandbank is an adventure on its own. Feel like a Captain taking a boat ride to the island.
Have a picnic on this breezy island with your family to make your trip more memorable. There’s no better alternative than the sunset cruise to close the day. Watch the beautiful orange sun set in clear sea water while unwinding on a luxurious cruise.
Zanzibar is truly a place worth visiting. Even though it has a lot to offer, its popularity is significantly lesser than some other tourist destinations across the globe. So if you’re looking for an exciting yet relaxing destination, Zanzibar is the one for you.
