In Jamaica some years ago there was the same issue of aggressive hawkers. You would get the "Jamaican Handshake", where they would shake your hand and then not let go. My wife learned to dress down in town, slightly shabby, with her hair under a hat.. And I got some reflecto sunglasses for us, because if they could not see your eyes it put them off.
I am a Tanzanian and have been to Zanzibar and I can say I genuinely hate hawkers, I mean yes it's business and people always trying to sell their products but it exhausting and not just to tourist even when you are a local and doing an inside tour, and the thing about negotiating prices it's like Tanzanian culture which I hate, they don't do this to just to tourist even to locals the price depends on how you look but being a Tanzanian I know how to handle it and I always gets the actual price. ps; they say to you something is 50 US dollars you say I have 15 and trust me they will try to go tell you to add more money but always add two dollars more until you reach half the price they told you because it's always the actual price. and if they say no just leave and go to another place, they will try to stop you and sell to you at the price you said or selling to you at the actual price. But also be aware some will always tell you the actual price and if you negotiate they will not decrease the price at all then know it's the actual price. and another thing you can do try to make friend with local tourist you meet and ask them to help you with prices or sometimes you can ask them to guess for you an actual price for something
OOOO this is very helpful info. Thanks so much for watching my video and taking the time to leave a comment! It means a lot!! I LOVE IT when people add this type of helpful info!!
Thanks for the explanation. I actually thought they were doing that to me coz I'm a Kenyan. I got tired of bargaining and decided to just chill in the room

Beautiful beaches there but I totally know what you mean about the Hawkers. You summed it up well when you said it was ‘exhausting’. I said to my girlfriend when were there that it was tiring been constantly sold too
I've spent a short week in Zanzibar after development work in East Africa. While I agree with most of your points, there is one thing I found expensive, and that was travelling around the island. There seems to be a scarcity of options between renting a private taxi, which are ridiculously expensive between cities and being squeezed in dala dala (collective bus), which will take twice the time. It seems even diving centers and other tourist place don't have the notions of shuttle cars or sharing taxis, which would allow to cut the price by 2 to 4 times.
I hate hawkers. We have a lot of them in my country, too. I actually refrained from choosing arab countries like Egypt for this exact reason. at least in zanzibar, it's a tropical island, so the beauty helps you heal the annoyance.
I am about to travel to Zanzibar with my wife and son. I really appreciate your tips and advise. You did a wonderful job and I would encourage you to continue. Let you know when I return - how the trip went. I will miss Full Moon by 2 days. O well.
Hi Christine i enjoy your video since you are in zanzibar you should visit Seychelles it in island it is a 2 hour flight we got the best beach we are closed to Mauritius and Reunion island Seychelles looks like Hawaii very safe county
Zanzibar is very beautiful but you're absolutely right... it is EXHAUSTING being constantly (and I do mean CONSTANTLY) hounded by hawkers and touts. It can be so difficult to get a moment's peace. They are known as "papasi" - which is Swahili for 'ticks' - and you will come to understand why. They are tenacious little bloodsuckers who will not leave you alone no matter how many times you tell them to go away. You cannot even go to a bar for a quiet drink because someone will sit down next to you immediately and try to sell you something. And there really isn't anyone on the island who isn't running some kind of hustle. I'm glad I went but I would never go back.
@@ChristineLozada You are welcome. I just feel that I need to add that the people I met on MAINLAND Tanzania are some of the nicest people in the world!
Thats why me and my daughter travelled to the Maldives last december instead. We were in absolute PARADISE 🙌 It was so tranquil and few people so no one bothered you . We went to a private resort island called #ReethiFaruResort and stayed in a water villa, i SO wanna go back 😩 !
I want to invite you to Oman. A secret destination with lots of culture , unlike Dubai we have lots of culture, beautiful beaches , lots of water sports and desert activities .
cool video---i didn't feel you were being negative at all--just giving people the cool pro's and con's--even in paradise you have to be wise...nice smile you have ,too!! and btw I love Oahu...loved running the ala wai and my bud/bruddah stayed on university/King st. huggs/thx/ mahalo

Thank you for the video it was really helpful, we're planning to visit in june and wanted to ask was it easy to find a driver or can you recommend a company as we will be staying in two different locations and i don't want to rent a car. thank you again :)
Sad to hear you got hassled by hawkers. We're thinking of going here for our holiday in 2025, and the thing that spoilt Egypt for us was the constant hassle from the fake sellers and hawkers. Were you traveling alone as a young American woman? If so, I guess we might have a different experience as a middle aged British couple?! I don't know, I'm interested in your opinion?
Hi what are the drone laws for Zanzibar. There’s no clear info on the internet and I’m thinking of buying a drone and I really don’t want customs to seize it 🥺
Great question! It's one of the only places in Africa that has clear(ish) drone laws. You have to register it with the equivalent of their FAA and it generally takes 60 days. Their govt website has all the info on it!
abdul is the best driver! his info is in the description of this video. and yes to malaria pills if mainland tanzania, but since i didn’t go, no for zanzibar
Thank you for your videos about Zanzibar! - I’m going there this February. Question: do you think you were approached by locals selling things more frequently because you are a woman?
Super exciting that you're going in Feb! Tbh, I'm not sure... I kind of felt like everyone got the same treatment, but I'm wondering if someone else in the comments may have an experience they can share?
a great question! at the time in which I traveled there no test was required, but Id keep up with their govt website because rules are changing all the time!
currently, they don't require a corona negative test result but just read the Tanzania embassy website from where you are or the Tanzania international Airpot ( Julius Nyerere International Airport) to get an update, and bear in mind that you might get tested at the airport that's all.
In all the places I visited on the island, I only had the choice of using Tanzanian shillings. There are places you can exchange your dollars and better rates are given to larger bills (ie 50s and 100s vs. 20s and 10s)
Another thing change your dollar into Tanzanian Shillings before you go to the island (let's say you if land first at mainland Tanzania) because the exchange rates at the island are quite high unless you find a Bank and it's not possible to find a bank at Nungwi or Paje, so just be ready with that.
You may need to press 'expand' or 'more' to the description to see alllll the notes! The part I think you're asking about..

To each their own, i enjoy hearing the call the prayer in the morning, its comforting. I guess it depends on the voice of the mu'adhin (the one who calls) some of them have very melodic voices.
@@aishaalmahri In Stone Town it was horribly loud and I believe around 5 in the morning! Practice your repressive religion, put have the decency to respect others. I feel sorry for all the girls and women in Iran & Afghanistan. I will never travel again to a Muslim country.
There are different types of malaria pills, but on the island, there no many mosquitos and sometimes no mosquitos at all so do not worry about catching malaria there. unless you going to the mainland but also depends on the region you are going to. If you going north there are no mosquitos to few mosquitos like in Arusha and also south like Mbeya. but if you're going to Dar es Salaam from October to January there are not many mosquitos but from February to September there are a lot of mosquitos mostly at night but also depends on the area you will be staying in. However , I would advice to sleep in mosquito net here or sometimes you will find hotel rooms with mosquito-proof so you will be okay. if it happens that you catch Maralia do not be terrified because it can be cured. There are different type of pills as well, there are strong ones you just take once and you will have to drink a lot of water and there are not too strong ones which you will have to take for a couple of days, I recommend take a strong one and drink a lot of water rather than taking less strong for a couple of weeks (speaking from experience). but don't fear you will really catch malaria its not like how it is shown on medias
@@lucciannersylvester2550 my family is from Trinidad and I hate how much mosquitos come for me there aha hopefully I can catch a break when I go zanzibar next year. My aunty has coaxed me into trying somewhere new aha
I took Artemisia Afra herbs in Zanzibar & Dar Es Salaam. I didn't get malaria. Despite in Zanzibar mosquitos was biting me from time to time, e.g. at the beachside cafeteria. I won't further ever consider chemical malaria prophylaxis. Herbs 4 Life 👌🏼 Disclaimer: This is not medical advice, and I'm not a doctor.
Thank so much......hate the thought of being on a beach with hagglers, but also hate the thought of being on a beach with no water UGH!!! Can't decide where to stay 😞

well... you could equally say you can't tell me what i can and can't compare. lol. any comparison should be based on what someone has experienced. if i compared two things i have NOT experienced.. eee.... that's questionable.

Very informative video thanks! Curious to know how you go about getting a driver...?
I loooove the driver I used (Abdul). His info is in the description if you want to reach out to him.
Did you take malaria pills during your trip? I am going within the next couple weeks and wondering, if it’s necessary?
I would’ve considered it if I went on safari. But for just the island, no. But I think it’s up to you if you want to do something like that.

well... you could equally say you can't tell me what i can and can't compare. lol. any comparison should be based on what someone has experienced. if i compared two things i have NOT experienced.. eee.... that's questionable.
Can you send me the scam video
Ooo I made available to everyone (for now) - there is a link in the description of this video to it!
