Robinson's Place is spread around a beautiful shady garden, beside an idyllic stretch of beach, and is unlike any other beach-side accommodation on this website. It is run by a lovely European–Zanzibari couple, Ann and Ahmed (known as Eddie), and feels more like an eccentric family home than a lodge. You will always get a very friendly welcome here, and with only 12 guests at a time, the pace of life is relaxed and laid-back.
Just like Tanzania, Zanzibar is three hours in the advance of Greenwich Mean Time (GMT+3). It doesn't operate daylight saving time, and consequently there's no time difference between Zanzibar's summer and winter months.
Uganda is a truly “authentic” safari destination - definitely less sophisticated than Tanzania or Kenya in terms of infrastructure and not in the same “big game” league, but equally untouched and as genuine as Africa gets.
Uganda’s gorillas, chimps, birds and the wider range of special-interest attractions (from butterflies to orchids) makes it a perfect match for first timers and seasoned African visitors alike.
Tanzania home to Africa's most dramatic and famous features. Fantastic wildlife, stunning scenery and idyllic beaches Tanzania is virtually unrivalled in terms of wildlife population and diversity. From the biggest African plains, the Serengeti, to the highest African mountain, Mt Kilimanjaro, to the deepest African Lake Tanganyika.
Pemba offers classic tropical beaches to those wanting to get away from the crowds, whilst the Selous Game Reserve never disappoints those looking for lion and elephant!
