Abeid Amani Karume International Airport is the main airport in the Zanzibar Archipelago located on Unguja Island. It is approximately 5 kilometres south of Zanzibar City, the capital of Zanzibar, and has flights to East Africa, Europe, and the Middle East. (Wikipedia)

Stone town of Zanzibar, also known as Mji Mkongwe, is the old part of Zanzibar City, the main city of Zanzibar, in Tanzania. The newer portion of the city is known as Ng’ambo, Swahili for ‘the other side’. Stone Town is located on the western coast of Unguja, the main island of the Zanzibar Archipelago. Wikipedia

Stone Town is a city of prominent historical and artistic importance in East Africa. Its architecture, mostly dating back to the 19th century, reflects the diverse influences underlying the Swahili culture, giving a unique mixture of Arab, Persian, Indian and European elements. For this reason, the town was designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2000.

Due to its heritage, Stone Town is also a major visitor attraction in Tanzania, and a large part of its economy depends on tourism-related activities, ( Wkipedia )

An invitation to dine at Baraza

At Baraza, we pride ourselves on the creation of a menu that fuses the culinary cultures of Africa, Asia, India and Persia into a sublimely piquant selection of dishes that change every day. Our menus also reflect the diverse seasonal produce of this magical island. Extensive in scope, our menu also features a range of continental dishes (and we will be delighted to adapt it to include any dietary preferences that you may express).

As a family-run business, we will consider it an honour to work with you to make your special day a memory for eternity. We’re proud of our ability to create intimate bespoke weddings – just for the two of you – or for your entire group. Our stunningly evocative Indian Ocean beach makes a sublime stage for a simple toes-in-the-sand ceremony.

We are also experts in the provision of hand-made traditional wedding bowers – which can be set against the backdrop of the ocean, under the coconut palms or by the pool. Our highly- trained wedding team look forward to working with you on personalizing everything from flowers and champagne – to hair to make-up. And, if your preference is for something different, we can suggest an authentic Swahili
