Explore Jozani Forest, swim with turtles at Salaam Cave, and visit The Rock Restaurant on a private Zanzibar day tour.

“Schöner Trip über die Insel. Als Tipp für diejenigen die mit den Schildkröten schwimmen gehen, nichts grünes anziehen da sie mit Löwenzahn (glaube ich, jedenfalls grün) gefüttert werden. Auf die Farbe fahren die voll ab und man könnte sonst an Stellen angeknabbert werden die man nicht möchte 🥴😂”

Explore Zanzibar’s Mnemba snorkeling, Kuza Cave, Blue Lagoon, Starfish Beach, and The Rock Restaurant on a private 10-hour day tour.

“Abholung pünktlich, aber keine Erklärungen zum Ablauf und auch sonst keine Erklärungen zu Land und Leuten während der vielen Zeit im Auto. Stattdessen Stille im Auto. Der erste Schnorchel-Spot war nicht, wie es die Überschrift und die Bilder der Tour suggerieren, auf Mnemba Island, sondern weit im Meer neben der Insel.

Review of Zanzibar’s Rock Restaurant and Blue Lagoon tour, with snorkeling, starfish, sandbank time, transport, costs, and booking tips.

“I enjoyed the tour. It ended up being a private tour with just my wife and I. The tour guide was on time and took us where we needed to go. The only problem that I had was that I requested a guide who speaks English and we got a guide who didn't, which made communication very difficult. Other than that the tour it self was worth book for the price 👌🏽 💯”

Spot Zanzibar’s red colobus monkeys, swim with turtles at Salaam Cave, and visit The Rock Restaurant on a flexible seven-hour tour.

“Abwechslungsreiches Programm, bei den Schildkröten sollte man die Anzahl begrenzen!!! Das beruhigt Tier und Mensch, macht alles erlebnisreicher und verhindert, dass zum Bsp. meine Frau ohne eigenes zutun gebissen wurde. Für die Erstverpflegung wäre ein vorhandenes großes Pflaster angebracht!”
