Travel insurance is essential if you are worried about unforeseen events affecting your trip in the future.
When possible, avoid traveling during school and public holidays. However, if you must travel during these dates, make your bookings 6 months in advance.

Rest assured that Zanzibar offers a warm tropical climate, regardless of the weather.
It is normal for tropical rain to fall all year round, usually in short bursts, and is most often welcomed relief from the hot weather.
Climate change has sadly affected all places on earth, including Zanzibar.
As a result, we cannot predict the normal patterns, as was the case when I started to promoted Zanzibar in the early 1990s.
Being a popular topic on the internet, many different opinions will be available when doing a search.
Sadly, the days are gone of being able to base your holiday plans purely on historical data.

In comparison with other tropical islands, Zanzibar has mostly been spared the worst of the tropical storms so far.
