Traditional wooden dhow anchored on turquoise shallow water off Zanzibar8 hours

Safari Blue

Menai Bay · max 12

A dhow out to the Kwale sandbank at low tide, a mangrove lagoon swim, then a snorkelling stop on the reef. Lunch is grilled seafood and fresh fruit, eaten on the beach.

Narrow coral stone alleyway in Stone Town, Zanzibar, with carved wooden doors4 hours

Stone Town heritage walk

Stone Town · max 8

Carved Zanzibari doors, the Old Fort, the House of Wonders, Darajani market and the former slave market site. Walked slowly, with a guide who lives in these alleys.

Snorkeller swimming above a shallow coral reef in clear tropical water6 hours

Mnemba Atoll snorkelling

North-east coast · max 8

The healthiest reef on the island, with two drops on the atoll edge. Dolphins are common on the way out, and the boat waits rather than chases.

White sandbank surrounded by shallow turquoise sea near Zanzibar6 hours

Prison Island & Nakupenda sandbank

Changuu Island · max 12

The giant Aldabra tortoises on Changuu, some of them older than the buildings on the seafront. Then lunch on a sandbank that only exists at low tide.

Bottlenose dolphins swimming close to the surface of the Indian Ocean5 hours

Kizimkazi dolphin encounter

South coast · max 8

An early start to reach the bottlenose pods before the crowds arrive. No chasing, no crowding, engines off when the pod is close — and we end early rather than push.

Whole spices and dried cloves laid out on a tropical spice farm4 hours

Spice farm & Swahili lunch

Kizimbani · max 10

Clove, nutmeg, cardamom, vanilla and cinnamon straight off the plant, rubbed between your fingers. Lunch is cooked by the family who farm the plot.

Red colobus monkey sitting in the canopy of Jozani Forest, Zanzibar4 hours

Jozani Forest & red colobus

Jozani-Chwaka Bay · max 10

The only place on earth to see the Zanzibar red colobus, which lets you stand closer than any monkey should. Then the mangrove boardwalk over the tidal creek.

Restaurant standing on a coral outcrop in the sea on the east coast of Zanzibar5 hours

The Rock & Michamvi sunset

East coast · max 6

Lunch at the restaurant on its own coral outcrop, with the table booked well in advance. Afterwards, the only west-facing sunset on the east coast.

Dhow sailing at sunset off Nungwi beach in Zanzibar2.5 hours

Nungwi sunset dhow cruise

Nungwi · max 14

Out under sail as the light goes and the fishing fleet comes back in. Fruit and cold drinks aboard, and the engine stays off while there is wind.

Kitesurfer riding flat shallow water off Paje beach, Zanzibar3 hours

Paje kitesurf discovery

Paje · 1 or 2 students

Flat, waist-deep water over sand and a reliable cross-shore wind — the reason Paje exists on the kite map. IKO-certified instructor, all equipment included.

Wide white sand beach at Kendwa with calm turquoise water6 hours

Kendwa beach day & seafood grill

Kendwa · flexible

The one beach on Unguja where the tide never strands you, so the swim is there all day. Sunbeds, shade, a long lunch and transfers both ways.

Coral rock coastline and cave entrance on the north-west coast of Zanzibar5 hours

Mangapwani caves & north coast

Mangapwani · max 10

The coral cavern with its freshwater pool, and the slave chambers cut into the rock above the shore. Then a quiet fishing village most visitors drive straight past.

Always included

The same four things on every trip

Booking three or four excursions? We will sequence them around your tides, flight times and rest days, and price the set as one — so you are not snorkelling at low water or driving to Nungwi on your departure morning.

Hotel pickup
Air-conditioned pickup and drop-off anywhere on Unguja, timed to your day rather than a shared circuit.
A licensed guide
In English, French, Italian or German on request — tell us when you enquire.
Fees inside the price
Entrance and conservation fees are already in the number you are quoted.
Water, not upsell
Chilled drinking water refilled from a cooler rather than sold to you by the bottle.
