One of the best things about travelling with kids is that there are so many more family-friendly options these days. When it comes to choosing a hotel for your holiday in Zanzibar, Tanzania, why not opt for a family hotel? They offer plenty of extra amenities and services that will make your holiday with kids that much more enjoyable.
