Have you or your children always dreamed of seeing dolphins? This is your day: start your morning at Kizimkazi - formerly the capital of Zanzibar where the oldest mosque in East Africa still stands. This unique house of worship bears testimony to the early arrival of the Persians in Zanzibar’s South, built around the 12th century. After a quick look of the mosque you are ready to board on your motorized boat and set for our dolphin search. When luck is on our side it is even possible to swim with these beautiful mammals. After the boat trip you will have time to go for snorkeling: waters here are crowded with little fishes and the coral reef is colourful as ever!


Once back ashore, you will savour some Swahili snacks, before heading to Jozani National Park, one of the remaining rain forests of East Africa. You will walk through the luxurious green swamp forest, on the uniquely designed boardwalk into the mangroves. You’ll meet the little Zanzibar Red Colobus Monkeys, which are almost always here waiting for you and the countless photos: they are adorable, with cute faces and a really long tail, they move in large numbers of 20-30. Well, on a light note: expect them to do the monkey, after all that’s them!
