Itinerary

Imagine a day where you unlock the secrets of Zanzibar’s north coast with the Nungwi Village Cultural Tour—a trip that seamlessly blends authentic local encounters with relaxation. Begin with a guided walk through Nungwi, observing the vibrant fish market as it comes alive in the early morning, and witness the age-old craft of dhow building at the bustling boat yard. Here, you’ll meet artisans, visit blacksmiths, and even try your hand at traditional woodworking techniques.

Continue your exploration at the Mnarani Natural Aquarium, a unique tidal pool carved from coral bedrock, now home to endangered sea turtles and a variety of fish. This conservation project, established in 1993, offers a rare chance for up-close wildlife encounters and even the opportunity to swim in the natural sea.

Wrap up your visit with time to relax on Nungwi’s pristine sandy beaches or sample local delicacies for lunch. The tour’s unique selling point is its immersive window into local life and craftsmanship, paired with stunning coastal scenery—ideal for travelers seeking both culture and leisure in Zanzibar.
