Description

Your journey begins with a scenic 1-hour drive to Jozani National Park, the only national park in Zanzibar. Step into a magical forest alive with wildlife as you set out on a guided trek in search of the famous Red Colobus Monkeys, a species found only here. Along the way, your guide will share fascinating stories about the forest’s unique plants and animals including the tiny elephant shrew and other hidden treasures of the jungle. After your forest adventure, continue to the mystical Mangrove Boardwalk. Stroll along the wooden paths above a thriving ecosystem, where thousands of black crabs scuttle beneath the roots. If you listen closely, you might even hear the mangroves “whispering” in the breeze a truly unforgettable experience. Next, enjoy a short drive to the charming fishing village of Kizimkazi, home to the serene Salaam Cave Turtle Conservation Project.

Step into the crystal-clear waters and swim beside these gentle creatures as they glide gracefully around you. With expert guidance, you’ll gain a deeper appreciation for the turtles’ world and the importance of preserving their natural habitats. As the day winds down, you’ll be transferred back to your hotel your heart full of nature’s beauty, and your mind enriched with stories of Zanzibar’s wildlife and conservation spirit.
