Training venue
Zanzibar offers a range of hotels from international-standard resorts in Stone Town and beach areas to boutique properties, though some accommodations may need to generate their own electricity due to occasional grid unreliability. Training venues are typically hosted within larger hotels or dedicated conference facilities in Stone Town and the surrounding area.
Getting there
Abeid Amani Karume International Airport (ZNZ) is located approximately 5 km south of Stone Town and is served by international carriers including KLM, Qatar Airways, Turkish Airlines, Ethiopian Airlines, and Kenya Airways. Taxis and hotel transfers are the primary ground transport; tuk-tuks are available for shorter trips around the island.
Visa
Vanuatu passport holders enter Tanzania, including Zanzibar, visa-free for stays up to 90 days; simply present a passport valid for at least six months upon arrival for a visitor's pass.
Safety
Zanzibar is generally safe for visitors, but take standard precautions: avoid walking alone at night in unlit areas of Stone Town, keep valuables secure, and use reputable transport. Zanzibar is a predominantly Muslim island — dress modestly when outside hotel and beach areas.
