Experience two of the most iconic destinations in East Africa: Nairobi and Zanzibar. Nairobi is a fast-paced urban wonderland with wildlife nearby. Zanzibar is a tropical paradise located just off Tanzania's coast, in the Indian Ocean. 

As you travel from what many call the Silicon Savanah (one of Africa's main tech hubs) to dreamy Zanzibar, it'll feels like moving between entirely different worlds and maybe even travelling back in time. 

Enjoy pure relaxation and old world luxury. 'Pole pole' is Swahili for 'go slow' or 'take it easy'. You'll hear this a lot on your trip and hopefully it helps launch you into your soft life era.

After a taste of urban life and wildlife in Nairobi, we'll head to Zanzibar; the most iconic Swahili settlement in East Africa. There, we'll stay in Stone Town, the cultural heart of Zanzibar Island and a UNESCO World Heritage site.
