Zanzibar 10
I travelled to Zanzibar in 2009. The place is amazing. White sandy beaches, and crystal clear turquoise waters. The people are warm and friendly and are willing to help in whatever way they can. Apart from the beaches, there are hundreds of activities to choose from. Go to the spice farms, take a stroll in the creepy mangrove swamps, swim with the dolphins, check out the huge tortoises at prison island and visit stone town to find out the history of this beautiful place. Its like the whole world has moved forward, leaving Zanzibar back in time. To sum it up, i feel if there's a paradise on earth, it is ZANZIBAR!!!
