World Lion Day aims to raise awareness about the plight of lions and gather support for their conservation. While lions existed in large populations 100 years ago, there is now only approximately 24,000 wild lions left in Africa, as a result of poaching and hunting.
There is nothing quite like seeing these magnificent creatures thriving in the wild, where they belong.

Every night Forodhani Gardens in Stone Town turns into a busy street food market! If you want to experience the unique atmosphere of the Gardens, arrive early before the night food market begins while fishermen drag their wooden dhows back to the sand, street vendors slowly set up carts and makeshift tables. You can walk towards the shore and take a seat at the seawall while watching the famous “Forodhani Jumpers” display their nightly diving shows as the sun sets. As the market comes to life you can join the crowds and follow your nose to pick Zanzibar and Swahili delicacies such as grilled lobster, squid, crab, barracuda, shrimp and calamari. Other bites such as Zanzibar pizza, samosas, sweet potatoes, and meat skewers are also available.
