Day Trip Details

We'll pick you up at your hotel in Zanzibar at the indicated time and head to the nearest pier. There, we'll board a boat that will take us to Tumbatu Island.

While sailing, we'll enjoy the scenery of the third-largest island of the Zanzibar archipelago. Upon arrival, we'll learn about the local way of life, including their reliance on solar panels for energy, and explore customs of the population.

Next, we'll visit the ruins of the island, including the Shirazi constructions and the large baobabs, which are more than 900 years old.

After the tour, we'll take you to a local restaurant for a traditional meal of seafood, vegetables, and rice. Once refreshed, we'll head to the beach for an hour of snorkeling among corals and colorful fish in the blue waters.

Finally, we'll return to your hotel in Zanzibar, arriving about 8 hours later.
