Trade Aid a charitable trust whose aim is to create sustainable employment
\n in Mikindani, Tanzania are organising a group trip to The Old Boma at
\n Mikindani, at the end of October. With only seven rooms, The Boma has
\n a Country House Hotel feel, but it does mean the number of places are
\n strictly limited.<\/p>\n

Special airfares have been negotiated with British Airways and Air Tanzania.
\n As a Friend of Mikindani, and reader of this e-newsletter, you will enjoy
\n special rates at the Boma, a beautiful 19th<\/sup>
\n century German fort, faithfully and lovingly restored. The group will
\n finish with 3 nights in Zanzibar.<\/p>\n

The price for a total of 14 nights comprising 11 nights at the Old Boma
\n and 3 nights in Zanzibar will be from £995, on a B&B basis (apart
\n from the excellent food at The Boma, there are other places to eat close
\n by, although half board is available for a small supplement) and is dependent
\n on the standard of hotel selected in Zanzibar. The price includes free
\n excursions every other day such as snorkelling and swimming at the scenic
\n bay at Msimbati and a trip to the Rovuma river where you can watch hippos
\n and crocs. The flight departs on Saturday 26th Oct from Heathrow on a
\n non-stop BA flight to Dar es Salaam arriving at 0640 with a connecting
\n 0800 flight to Mtwara. A Trade Aid representative will accompany the flight
\n and the Zanzibar portion will have a guide. Return to Heathrow is on Sunday
\n 10th Nov at 1715 on a non-stop flight from Dar es Salaam.<\/p>\n

The Beetle says that this is an excellent deal, and knows the Boma: it
\n really is quite beautiful and the rooms are fabulous, some with hard carved
\n mahogany beds, and white muslin abounds. There's a pool, stunning
\n views of the bay, great cocktails as you watch sundown, good service and
\n attentiveness – what more could you ask for!<\/p>\n
