Coast & islands
Where the trip lands.
Four very different stretches of Swahili coast. Most give it four nights; we would argue for six.
Unguja · UNESCOStone TownCoral-rag alleys and carved doors.
Unguja · northNungwi & KendwaThe swimmable end, and the sunset side.
Unguja · eastPaje & JambianiKitesurfing water and a quieter shore.
Mnemba & MisaliCoral Reef ToursTurtles and reef sharks in protected water.
PembaPemba IslandWall diving into deep channel.
Mafia · Oct–MarMafia IslandWhale sharks in the channel.
Kilimanjaro
The roof of Africa.
Route choice decides your summit odds far more than fitness does.
Our recommendation
Lemosho Route
8 days · western approach
The longest gentle ascent on the mountain. Two extra nights of acclimatisation before summit night, and the quietest first three days.
