Zanzibar or Mauritius: which island for your honeymoon?
Two dream islands in the Indian Ocean, but two different moods. Here is how to choose the one that suits you.
The mood
Zanzibar charms with its authentic, spicy character: Stone Town, wild beaches and Swahili culture. Mauritius offers a more polished setting, with high-end resorts and a wide range of activities.
The budget
Zanzibar is generally more affordable, especially for accommodation. Mauritius sits in a more premium segment, with excellent comfort for the price.
The best season
- Zanzibar: June to October, dry and sunny.
- Mauritius: May to December, cooler and pleasant.
Formalities
Both destinations are easy to reach from Dakar. We check the current entry requirements for you.
Our advice
For a nature-focused, immersive honeymoon, choose Zanzibar. For a comfortable, varied and worry-free stay, go for Mauritius. Either way, we build the itinerary around you.
