Great trip!

  • Anonymous
“It was a great trip, wonderful to see the animals in their natural habitat. Some long days of driving but well worth it in the end. Erellah was great leader, pointed things out that we would've never seen without his help. Wilson, Sam and Esther were great assets to the trip and made it all the more enjoyable. It was my first trip with this tour operator and plan on more.”

“Discovering northern Tanzania national parks was long time dream. We were looking for a local company that would offer us flexibility and quality service. All went perfect : organization before we arrived, during our trip regarding quality of logistics, accommodation, transportation and food as well as quality of our guides, to the transfer on the way back to the airport. All was made for us to feel like home while preserving the specificity of our experience in a wonderful environment. I did expect a lot from this trip .. thank you for making it even better than imagined ! I definetely recommend this company !”
Great services by a very friendly and knowledgeable company/ staff

Zanzibar - Tour Highlights and Travel Tips

A trip to Zanzibar will open your senses to idyllic sand beaches filled with palm trees, the rich aromatic air of the spice markets, and a chilled atmosphere to take things pole – meaning slowly in Swahili. Plan a holiday to Zanzibar to take advantage of its warm tropical waters for an underwater adventure, curvy alleys to witness unique architecture representing its culture, or be lost in the jungles to catch sight of Red Colobus Monkeys, one of the rarest primates in Africa. There isn’t a single moment to lose!

Tour Highlights

  • Eat some of East Africa’s best street food at the Forodhani Gardens after sunset
  • Get lost in the winding streets of Stone Town, Zanzibar’s cultural and historic centre
  • Explore the coral reefs of the Indian Ocean
  • Take a trip to Prison Island (also called Changuu Island) to visit the giant tortoises
  • Tour a spice farm and indulge in the rich scents of everything from lemongrass to chilli

Travel Tips

  • While Zanzibar is the name of the country, it is also the name of one of the country’s smaller (uninhabited) islands. Chances are you will spend most of your time on Unguja, the biggest island in the Zanzibar archipelago.
  • Get ready to eat some of the spiciest food in the world! Popular as “the spice island”, Zanzibar was a spice plantation in the 18th century and continues to heavily flavour its dishes.
  • Think you know how to tell time? Think again. Zanzibar operates on Swahili time, which begins to be counted as the sun rises. This means that the 7:00 am you’re used to is in fact, 1:00am in Zanzibar (as the sun typically rises at 6:00am), and so on.
  • Speaking of time, those in Zanzibar like to take things pole pole - the Swahili term for slow. Relax, don’t rush, and do as the locals do.
  • Tea drinking is a way of life in Zanzibar. Be sure to try ginger chai (tangawizi), best if purchased from a roadside tea stand.
