This turned into one of those trips we’ll never forget, and it’s all thanks to Jack's Flight Club. Tanzania wasn’t even on our radar at that point, but after seeing the great fares land in my inbox, we decided to just go for it and book something spontaneous. Best decision we made.
We flew from our local airport, Birmingham, with Qatar Airways with a short stopover in Doha, simple and no hassle.
We based ourselves in Zanzibar and had an amazing time. The beaches were stunning, the sea was that unreal shade of blue, and the whole island just has this laid-back feel that makes you properly switch off.
Exploring Stone Town was one of the most powerful parts of the trip. There’s so much history there, some of it incredibly poignant, and walking through those narrow streets really brings it home.
We even managed to book our flights to include a two-night stop in Doha on the way back and absolutely loved it. Such a relaxed vibe, modern and beautiful but calm at the same time. It was the perfect way to break up the journey and tick off another country while we were at it!
