The international audiences that come for the festival are primarily interested in interacting with the culture and history of the island – we have tourism that is actually benefiting the community. This is responsible tourism making a difference to local people.
Sauti za Busara is held at the Old Fort in Stone Town over four nights and then moves to the beaches on Zanzibar?s north coast for a special grand final? celebration. Tanzanian food is not usually top of any tourists list however the Swahili Cuisine is delicious and at its best on this island ? [and maybe also in Dar es Salaam].
This festival also offers an opportunity to visit historic Stone Town, village cultural projects, spice plantations, taarab rehearsals, beach trips, dhow cruises, game safaris, snorkeling, diving, and swimming with dolphins. If you organize excursion trips through the festival then you are ensuring you get the best deal and profits go to the local communities and not an overseas middleman.
The past few festivals have had more than eleven thousand visitors and future festivals can only become more popular.
