    Getting TO/AROUND: We flew directly from Johannesburg to Zanzibar with SAA on the Tuesday morning. The flight left JHB at 8h20 so we arrived in zanzibar at approx 12h30. We bought our visa's upon arrival for US$50. Some people on our flight bought their visa's in SA, but they were not recognised when we arrived so they had to pay again! We departed again at 14h20 on the Sunday. Please be aware that there is not much at the airport. You basically stand in the street to book in your luggage. And you have to pay a departure tax of US$25 in cash.

    Transportation: Dalla-Dalla

    Getting TO/AROUND: The cheapest way to get around the island: a Dalla-Dalla. The journey starts as soon as about 20 people squeezed into it. We did not use it, but if you are back-packing and on a very tight budget then this is the way to go. I was always amused by the number of people hanging on at the back when it got "over-crowded"
