One tour we took involved a walking tour of the spice plantations (Zanzibar is known as the Spice Island). While the stunning beaches are usually the biggest draw for Zanzibar, I was enticed by the multi-cultural experience of exploring Stone Town – the capital city. The first thing that catches your attention as you get off the bus near the Stone Town market, is the strange mix of smells, both pleasant and unpleasant. As it turned out, this awesome old building (with the most amazing spiraling wooden staircase) was lived in by David Livingstone during his many stays in Zanzibar.

Located within Makalali Private Game Reserve, the lodge allows for a more luxurious and modern stay rather than the traditional South African safari bush experience. As you explore further you will discover the gorgeous pool area – the rim-flow pool overlooks the Makhutswi River and we found that it was a cool place to spot wildlife. The bar fridge had cold water for us to enjoy but we especially loved the jars of jelly beans, the tea station that even had our favorite tea, and the delicious chocolate chip cookies. A fun part of the evening drive was the bush bar that served drinks during sunset to enjoy while standing in the middle of the bush.

As hotels, resorts, airlines, cruise lines, tourism boards, DMO’s and more start to open up for the summer season and beyond, they’ll need the skills that only travel writers can provide. Most of the time when you pitch is rejected it’s because you’ve pitched something that doesn’t fit the publication and their audience. You don’t want to send a pitch for a story idea that was recently published. Good writing in your pitch could be enough to convince the editor to take a chance on you, even if you don’t have any relevant clips.
