Jozani Forest Tour

Visit the Jozani forest and explore this natural part of Zanzibar, home to several habitats including swamp forest, evergreen thickets, mangroves, as well as a variety of wildlife, including sykes and red colobus monkeys, bush pigs, Ader’s duiker and suni antelopes, elephant shrews, chameleons and lots of birdlife. The Jozani forest is best known for its kirks red colobus monkeys (kima punju in swahili), which are endemic to Zanzibar. About 10 years ago, the monkeys were considered to be in danger of extinction, but this trend has since reversed due to the conservation project. There are about 6000 red colobus monkeys now residing in Jozani Forest. After visiting the monkeys, walk across to the Pete-Jozani mangrove boardwalk, which entwines through coral thicket vegetation, mangrove forests and across a creek. The mangrove forest is extremely crucial to Zanzibar’s ecosystems, providing a habitat for many lizards, snakes and birdlife as well as preventing the coastal erosion. Jozani Forest is situated 38km southeast of Stone Town. In 1995, the Jozani Chwaka Bay Conservation Project was set up to protect the largest remaining patch of indigenous ground-water forest that used to cover Zanzibar. Local communities are involved in the project and some of your entrance fee contributes to development projects and to compensate local farmers whose crops are often damaged by the red colobus monkeys.

Nungwi Village Cultural Tour

Nungwi a village at the north coast part of Zanzibar Island . This trip focuses on a cultural village visit to Nungwi, including sightseeing and free time to relax on the white sand beaches of the north. In Nungwi there are number of very interesting things to see and do, including a natural aquarium that is home to endangered sea turtles and a variety of fish. The aquarium itself is a natural formation carved out from the coral bedrock by the erosion of millions of waves crashing against the shore. The depth of the water rises and falls with the tides providing a natural environment for its inhabitants. The best time to visit Nungwi is in the early morning when the fish market is in full swing – depending on the catch the previous night you might see tuna, king fish, dorado and a variety of other large fish for sale. In the morning, local fishermen (and women) wade out to the edge of the coral reef to catch a number of different small sea creatures including squid, octopus, puffer fish and the occasional ray – their catch will be sold at the fish market throughout the day. The Nungwi Boat Yard is another riveting experience where you’ll meet the ship yard owner and learn how the dhows are built; from the sourcing of the wood to the joints used and how they are launched. Please also be aware that the village is the home and workplace of the local population and we ask you to respect their privacy – it is always best to ask before taking pictures. At the end of the walk, you can either relax on the sandy beaches or go swimming in the natural sea. Lunch and refreshments are arranged there to taste local delicacies or international food. Suggested itinerary follows: Visit the village Visit the dhow-building capital of Zanzibar We will stop at the blacksmith and see the traditional way of making the tools for the construction of dhows. At the construction site, we will see the way dhows have been built for centuries and see how skilled craftsmen bend wood to create the dhows. Take advantage of the opportunity to try your hand at this unique craft. Visit and swim at Mnarani Natural Aquarium Hawksbill turtles have traditionally been hunted around Zanzibar for their attractive shells, and green turtles for their meat. The project was established in 1993. You'll also get a change to swim while on tour.

Sompo S | Traveled in January

5.0 - Excellent

A perfect safari for families!

Our 7-Day Classic Luxury Safari in Tanzania was a fantastic family adventure. Anthon, our expert guide, ensured that every moment was memorable, especially with young children (ages 2 to 12). We explored Arusha, Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti, Ngorongoro, and Karatu, where the kids loved seeing elephants, lions, and giraffes up close. The accommodations were luxurious and comfortable, with spacious rooms, clean bathrooms, and great meals. The entire trip was smooth, from the warm airport reception to the seamless transfer at the end. A perfect safari for families!

My recent week-long African safari was beyond expectations

My recent week-long safari was really beyond my expectations. I feel like I won the jackpot with this safari company, however I'm not exactly sure how other ones operate. The Ngorogoro Crater and the Serengeti provided amazing safari experiences, and I was thrilled to see all five of the Big Five among so many other creatures. In addition, I saw more of Tanzania's culture and history than I had anticipated. The highlight was visiting a Masai community and interacting with the warriors and tribesmen there. I found the entire experience enjoyable and truly appreciated. Strongly advised!
