This honeymoon follows the Zanzibar archipelago from its busiest island to its quietest. You begin in Stone Town, with its old lanes and spices, move to the beach at Kendwa for the sun and the sea, and finish with two nights at Fundu Lagoon on Pemba, a barefoot lodge with a jetty bar.

It is slow, private and full of water, with boat trips, snorkelling and long dinners on the beach.
