A well-deserved 5-star rating! This comprehensive tour takes you through the entire southern part of Zanzibar, starting with the stunning mangrove forest and Jozani Forest, where we got to see beautiful monkeys. We then explored the impressive Kuza Cave. But the highlight was the Blue Lagoon – the clearest, most vibrant shades of blue we've ever seen in Zanzibar. A delicious lunch at The Rock topped it all off, and we were lucky enough to spot colorful starfish. As a bonus, we even encountered sea turtles. A special thanks to our amazing guide, REGALO, who was not only highly knowledgeable but also warm and friendly. We had wonderful conversations and shared insights about our different cultures throughout the journey. Highly recommend this tour!

During our trip, we had the chance to experience everything available. We explored the mangroves, got an up-close look at the red-backed and blue-backed monkeys, swam in the stunning blue lagoon, and saw plenty of starfish. We also had a brief view of The Rock restaurant and visited the freshwater cave. However, we preferred dining on Paje beach instead of at the restaurant. We were fortunate to have Allen as our guide. Although he was supposed to be English, his French was exceptional. Both Allen, our guide, and Aziz, our driver, were outstanding.

Our excursion began with the guide Abdala and the driver Said. Said was one of the best drivers we encountered during our holidays, and Abdala was one of the most pleasant and good-natured guides. The places we visited were unique and dreamlike. Thank you so much!

The best day trip we had in Zanzibar was thanks to our tour guide, Regalo. He’s an incredible and unique person who went out of his way to ensure we felt comfortable, while sharing the beauty of the place with us in perfect Italian. We highly recommend him. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Despite the poor weather, the activity had a lot of potential. We were able to see monkeys and enjoy diving with the fish. It's definitely something we'd do again if the weather were better.

Just like last year, we traveled with Sadik, and once again, the trip was absolutely stunning. Since Sadik speaks German fluently, we were able to learn many fascinating details. If we come back to the island, which is highly likely, we’ll definitely book our excursions with Sadik. Thank you for such a wonderful day.

A great program with a warm welcome from both the guide and the driver. This is definitely an activity worth doing if you visit Zanzibar.

We had the chance to experience everything offered during the trip. We explored the mangroves, observed red-backed and blue-backed monkeys up close, swam in the blue lagoon, and spotted plenty of starfish. We also had a glimpse of The Rock restaurant and visited the freshwater cave. Our preferred place for meals was on Paje Beach rather than the restaurant. We were fortunate to have Allen as our guide, who, despite being expected to speak English, was fluent in French. Both Allen, the guide, and Aziz, the driver, were excellent throughout the journey.

We were picked up by Amar, the driver, and Abdalla, our guide. First, we drove to the Jozani Forest to see the monkeys. We walked through the forest with Abdalla for about 45 minutes and managed to see and photograph a few monkeys. After that, we explored the beautiful mangrove forest. Abdalla spoke excellent German and shared a lot of interesting information with us. Then, we headed to the beach for a snorkeling tour to the Blue Lagoon and to see the starfish. Unfortunately, our guide couldn’t join us for the snorkeling as he wasn’t feeling well. However, we had a lovely boat ride with the local boatman and got to see some beautiful fish. Fresh fruit was provided during the tour. There were a few other boats around at the same time, so it became a bit crowded. Afterward, we went to The Rock for lunch. The price for the pasta dishes was reasonable. The visit to the Kuza Cave was a bit disappointing because of the time of day (around 4:30 p.m.), which made it dark and crowded. The beach walk in Paje felt unnecessary. Overall, we were very pleased with the guide and driver. ????????

The activities were fantastic, and both the driver and the guide were very kind and attentive to all our requests.

The hike was nice, although it was somewhat ruined by the rain. The guide’s instructions were unclear— we wanted to swim in the Blue Lagoon, but he didn’t give us enough time to change.

Helpful? Yes

We saw everything that was promised. The only downside was that we spent only about 15 minutes in the national park— we saw the monkeys and then moved on quickly.

Helpful? Yes

Our tour began at Jozani Forest, but instead of entering the park, we went to an area across from it and set off with our guide to look for monkeys. Unfortunately, we didn’t see any monkeys in the forest itself— only on the road leading up to it. After visiting the mangroves, we crossed the road to the main entrance of Jozani but then turned off again to find a tree with monkeys. As a result, we didn’t actually enter the designated national park. Sadly, we didn’t receive much information about the monkeys or anything else throughout the tour. On a positive note, the snorkeling and starfish experience was beautiful, with countless fish of all sizes. Lastly, we visited Kuza Cave and Paje Beach, but we didn’t enjoy them much, as we only walked up and down once.
