Bagamoyo accommodation from NZ$46

It is well known that New Zealanders just love to relax, so consider staying a little longer and check out the Slave Market, Old Fort and Prison Island, in Zanzibar Town, 45 kilometres to the northeast of Bagamoyo. If you'd like to visit Zanzibar Town, check out the room rates at the Kisiwa House and Zanzibar Serena Hotel. 55 kilometres to the southeast of Bagamoyo, you'll also find Dar es Salaam, which is home to the Mayfair Hotel and Best Western Plus Peninsula Hotel. If you're staying in Dar es Salaam, make sure you visit the Little Theatre, University of Dar es Salaam and St Joseph's Cathedral.

If you love sports and want to watch games, you could make a trip to Tanzania National Stadium, which is 60 kilometres to the southeast of Bagamoyo. The Tanzanite Executive Suites and the Holiday Inn Dar Es Salaam City Center are close to the action.

Visitors planning on flying via Zanzibar International Airport may choose to book a bed at the Zanzibar Beach Resort or the Protea Hotel Mbweni Ruins Zanzibar, which are both a short trip away.
