Zanzibar Video Guide – Street Food, Stone Town, Beaches
The Zanzibar archipelago consists of two main islands, and a slew of tiny islands; the two main islands are known as Unguja and Pemba. The most famous and widely recognized of the islands is Unguja, also known as just Zanzibar Island.

That was fabulous Mark. It gives you a real feel for Zanzibar.
Thanks Paulo – appreciate you watching it!
In fact I make that ginger coffee for my wife when she catches a cold. very good stuff and it takes away the cold in 2 days. I add a little bit of crushed whole black pepper tho.
I wish they arrest me and put me in that jail
for life.
The Biriyani looks like Hydrabadi Biriyani tho but I am sure the taste will be different.
Nice video!

Thanks Sailor!
Mmm, that ginger coffee sounds great – it really is a great remedy for a cold or a sore throat. I like that you add some black pepper in it too – I’m going to have to try that at home. I’ve never had Hyderbadi biryani, but I’m sure it’s equally delicious (but different) and hopefully we’ll get to compare the 2 variations sometime!
Your video is making me hungry! Zanzibar seems so beautiful and exotic. It looks like you’re having a fabulous time!

Thanks Jade!
No, I haven’t joined that group yet, but I’ll look into it right now!
Looks beautiful! Sugar cane ginger juice sounds delicious. I don’t know about ginger in my coffee though. But I would certainly try it.ht
Thanks!
Yah, if you get a chance, try the ginger in your coffee – it’s not real strong ginger, just a little extra flavor!
Amazing your travels and knowledge of the local culture and food. I am assuming your are not traveling alone and have someone video you Takes a lot of courage to go to these out of the way countries

Thanks a lot Eileen,
Yes, most trips I am traveling with friends that take the video footage of me. Other times if I’m alone, I either just find someone random or do the self-video thing (doesn’t work too well).
I’ve always thought that island would be cool to visit. Thanks for the great video!

Hey Scott!
Zanzibar is a fantastic place to visit, also Pemba in the same archipelago is supposedly incredible (though I haven’t been there yet).
I’m heading to Zanzibar/Mwanza in just under 2 months – your blog has been a great help!
Glad to hear that Jacinda, hope you have an incredible time in Zanzibar!
Hi Mark, it brings back some nice memories watching your video. We visited Zanzibar in January 2011 and thoroughly enjoyed our backpacking adventure. You can take a look at the 8min video we created from our adventure – https://vimeo.com/49476408
South East Asia is next on the cards for us!
Hey Simon, awesome, thank you for sharing your video too! Also brings back some memories for me, such a wonderful place!
