According to the Daily Star, Zanzibar is keen to see its visitor numbers soar, welcoming all who wish to bask in its tropical charm and enjoy its vibrant nightlife.
Zanzibar was also named one of the best value sunny destinations worldwide in 2023 meaning a sneaky trip won't hurt your wallet too much.
