What are people saying about Zanzibar

Travel_T, Oct 2026

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Perfect Zanzibar Day Tour – Spice Farm, Prison Island & Stone Town!

We had an absolutely fantastic day on this tour—it truly packed in the very best of Zanzibar in one seamless experience. Booking through Viator was easy, and the tour was well organized from start to finish. Our first stop was the Tangawizi Spice Farm, and what a sensory experience! They explained how the spices and fruits are used to heal the body, and we were able to taste the fruit—it was delicious! We saw, smelled, and tasted cloves, vanilla, nutmeg, ginger, pepper, cinnamon, turmeric, and lemongrass, and learned about their traditional and medicinal uses. The traditional coconut climber demonstration was a highlight not to be missed. Next we went to Prison Island, reached by a scenic 30-minute boat ride from Stone Town. Seeing the 100-year-old Aldabra giant tortoises in their natural habitat was magical, and the island's history—including the 1893 prison ruins—was captivating. Our last stop was Stone Town, the UNESCO World Heritage site at the heart of Zanzibar's history. Walking through its colorful streets, the buildings were explained to us—including the former slave market, the local market, the old Arab fort, the House of Wonders, and the Freddy Mercury House—and we admired the stunning Swahili, Arab, Indian, and British-style doors. Our guide's knowledge gave us a much deeper understanding of Zanzibar's past. We also found a great place to eat for lunch, which was the perfect end to the day. The tour was perfectly paced, excellent value with admissions included, and one we'll never forget. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Zanzibar!

Mnemba Island snorkeling and Swimming with Dolphin

Jessica_S, Oct 2026

Such a good excursion!...

Such a good excursion! The guides try so hard to make sure you get good views and videos and enough swimming time with the dolphins etc. We had so many opportunities. Ludo and Rashid were our guides and were amazing! They knew the good spots for snorkelling and again they were so good at getting videos.

4h Quad Adventures in Zanzibar: Nungwi / Kendwa Transfer inclus

Daryl_C, Oct 2026

Great day

Picked up ontime and then taken for the safety briefing. Everyone had to listen to demonstrate they knew the controls so its all safe. Some people didn't listen to instructions and got told off. Taken on a drive, a bit of road driving and a bit of off roading. Very bumpy and rocky tracks but was really fun. Stopped at a beach and had a walk for half an hour. Carried on to a little village and all the kids waved at us and then stopped for a look around. You can take sweets or toys for the kids if you like but you will get mobbed! Carried on to another beach where snacks and fruit were given. Had a really nice trip thanks.

From Zanzibar: Selous Game Reserve Day Safari with Flights

Morgan_T, Oct 2026

The best part of my trip

This was truly one of the most amazing experiences of my life! Our driver, Solomon, and our guide, Wilson, were absolutely incredible. They were knowledgeable, attentive, considerate, and worked so hard to make sure everyone was comfortable, safe, and having a great time throughout the entire experience. We were fortunate enough to see 3 of the “Big 5,” and Solomon and Wilson went above and beyond to make sure we had the best possible opportunities to see the animals up close and capture amazing photos. They were patient, observant, and clearly passionate about what they do. Their knowledge of the animals and the area made the experience even more special. I truly felt like we were in great hands from beginning to end. I’m so grateful for the memories, the incredible sights, and the beautiful photographs I was able to take home with me. I would absolutely recommend this experience—and especially Solomon and Wilson—to anyone looking for an unforgettable safari adventure!

Mamas of Zanzibar - A Unique Cultural & Culinary Experience

Heather_T, Sep 2026

Really exceptional experience

This was a really special experience. My husband and I did this together and the day was exactly why we travel to learn about other areas of the world. We were warmly welcomed, dressed like the locals and went to the market. The shopping list was in Swahili and English and I was able to try ordering in Swahili with the vendors. Then we went back to cook in the founders home with the mamas. The singing and connectivity of the women combined with delicious food made this a day to remember. I also love supporting women started and led businesses. 11/10 recommend doing this experience - you won’t be disappointed!

Ben_L, Aug 2026

Brilliant Evening

Brilliant evening out at sea! It was too cloudy to see the sunset but that didn’t matter at all, as we had such a relaxing time and the staff on the boat were amazing! Ronix, Ali and Lena were brilliant on board, they made my birthday so fun and special, and the BBQ food was incredible! It was very romantic just the two of us. Matthew the organiser quickly sorted out any issues we had, overall a brilliant experience to do whilst in Zanzibar, I highly recommend.

Jozani Forest, Kuza Cave, Paje Beach and The Rock Restaurant

Yesenia_R, Aug 2026

James was an absolute...

James was an absolute standout tour guide! We were pretty exhausted from back to back safaris and activities and needed a rest day, so we requested to change our tour date. The team was super accommodating and made the change without any hassle. Communication via WhatsApp leading up to the day was fantastic, and they were right on time. Since we just wanted a relaxing, easy-going vibe, we asked James if we could skip Jozani Forest, and he was completely accommodating. We ended up doing Kuza Cave, Paje Beach, and The Rock Restaurant, and it was just wonderful. If you're looking for a smooth, flexible, and fun experience, I highly recommend booking with them and definitely ask for James!

We cruised the most beautiful water to Mnembe Island on an authentic Dhow where we saw so many dolphins and the most beautiful water in the world . Mnembe island was a dream! The views 12/10 and the crew was so amazing. The lunch was cooked right on the boat and was the best lunch we had all trip (still drooling over the lobster). We also enjoyed some great snorkeling. Shout out to our crew: chef Mohammad, Hemed and Musa! They made the day so enjoyable and I would recommend this trip to anyone coming to Zanzibar!
