  • Heeey everyone! Ending the year with a fun vlog all about my solo birthday trip to Zanzibar, Tanzania! ^_^ It was my first time in Zanzi & I loved it! Can't wait to go back. Highly recommend solo trips to just take a moment for self honestly...
    I stayed at the Kwanza Resort - you can find my review during the last 20 minutes of the vlog.
    Room Tour - 50:41
    General info: I booked my stay through booking.com (found the best deals on there). The resort is 6 months old. I flew Uganda Airlines straight there (the return we stopped in Dar - do not recommend. It took forever to get home)

    Tanzania is definitely on my dream travel list. I recently went on a solo trip to Seychelles in October 2023 and absolutely loved it! You looked like you had a great time.

    Happy Birthday Rachael! I am so proud of you girl! The solo trips are great, but I must admit going to a different country for vacation on your own is nerve racking for moi. I frequent miami on my own and I always return refreshed to deal with life. Have your best years Rachael!❤❤❤

      @RachaelNalumu  2 місяці тому +1

      Awww I love this and welcome !!! 🤗 Kwanza was sooo great, I’d just say get the all inclusive instead of paying as you go. I thought I had purchased that but I didn’t and it was a bit inconvenient. I like paying once and not having to think about it at all ever again 😅🤣

    Bali is awesome. Ubud is the no 1, go to tourist place, Canguu is also nice more like health & wellness, the green village e.t.c They have lots of lovely nearby islands like Nusa Penida, Lombok e.t.c.

    I’m staying here in August from California this video gave great insight. How was the Wi-Fi? Is the food all inclusive (free) does your tv work ok lol

    • @RachaelNalumu
      @RachaelNalumu  7 місяців тому

      Ouuu enjoy your stay! The wifi was really good actually. Of course, closer to the resort versus closer to the beach. But everywhere is covered really. And there are all inclusive packages for food. Just arrange with them before arriving so you pay for that. And yes TV worked but I didn't use it at all LOL
