  Replying your response: Spanish guide: Please, stop lying to our faces. This guide was 18 years old, so it is impossible that he had been working for your company for several years — “several years” as you mentioned. It was impossible for us to communicate with the guide, which makes it very clear to us what level of standards and customer care your company actually has. Snorkelling material: I have also attached two photographs showing the condition in which we found the snorkelling equipment: it was simply left on the floor, wet with seawater, and already dirty to begin with. Furthermore, in your email, you confirm that customers are taken to the shop to collect their snorkelling equipment. This did not happen in our case. We were picked up in a small bay where there was nobody else (photos attached), and at no point did we get off the boat to collect the equipment, as you claim. There were only a pair of inflatable wings on the boat, as I already mentioned, and they were not our size. We then passed by another bay where all the other tourists doing the same activity were gathered. Unlike them, we did not get off the boat or even go close to the shore (photo attached). Drinking water: None of what you describe was communicated to us or provided during the activity. In any case, the experience we had has made the level of service and professionalism of both the guide and your company very clear to us. Regarding this situation... If you continue providing this kind of service in the future, don’t be surprised if you receive more complaints like ours. From now on, our goal is to make sure that any tourist travelling to Zanzibar to enjoy their holiday is well informed and chooses carefully who they book their activities with, so that they don’t have to go through the kind of experience we had.

• 1Terrible experience

  errible experience. We booked an excursion in Zanzibar that included snorkeling, a seafood barbecue lunch, a visit to sea turtles, and sunset at a beach. We specifically booked a Spanish-speaking guide. However, the guide spoke neither Spanish nor English, and we spent the entire excursion unable to communicate with him. When we arrived at the shore to start the activity, we realized that we had been taken to a completely different location from the rest of the people who had booked the same excursion. The snorkeling equipment was supposedly included, but the only gear available were used and dirty snorkels. We asked for fins, but because they could not understand us, they brought us sizes that did not fit. Most of the fruit that was served was eaten by the guide, and we were only given one small bottle of warm water each. The seafood barbecue was very different from what was being served at the other tables. Before posting this review, we contacted the company to complain, but they told us they could not do anything about it. The next day, we booked a similar excursion with another company, and the experience was completely different. It showed us just how poor this tour was in comparison. I have never felt so deceived and misled.

• 5An Unforgettable Adventure with the Best Team!

  This tour was absolutely amazing from start to finish! Our driver, Yussuf, reached out to us well before the tour even started, answering all of our questions and making sure everything was set. Once he picked us up, we met Khamis, who gave us a fantastic, clear brief of the day's itinerary and happily answered all of our remaining questions before we headed toward the beach. At the beach, we met our captain, Mzii, who took us out toward Mnemba Island. Chasing the dolphins to capture them on my GoPro video was so much fun! Mzii was incredible and even managed to capture some amazing, up-close footage of the dolphins for us. Afterward, we relaxed on a stunning sandbank beach, enjoying fresh fruit in the sun. Mzii then brought us back to Khamis, who treated us to a delicious lunch. To top it all off, we headed to the aquarium to feed the sea turtles, which was a wonderful highlight. Overall, this was an extremely adventurous and well-organized tour. Having three dedicated guides, Yussuf, Khamis, and Mzii, take care of us made the experience feel so personalized and special. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the island!

  I gave this two stars because the turtles were great! I loved the turtles and loved being in the water with them but the tour itself is disorganized. My tour guide picked me up and then picked another man up to go snorkeling to see dolphins. This tour doesn’t advertise dolphins, and I did not want to go snorkeling that day. Then I was supposed to have lunch but the lunch wasn’t ready because I wasn’t interested in snorkeling . It seems like they added other activities just to take up the time and add other guides to the tour. My main reason for booking this was for the turtles and the sunset. After the turtles there was nothing to do for 4 hours until sunset. It seemed like a group of people trying to make money off a solo traveler. This tour doesn’t advertise not need to be a whole day. It should be half a day. See the turtles, and then go catch the sunset at the beach. FYI I had been on the island for days and the reason I didn’t care to snorkel is because I can’t swim and I had a bad experience the day before while out snorkeling with a life jacket and a guide. I was Loki g forward to a relaxed day with just the turtles and the sunset.

  Disappointing, areas visited where too crowded, lunch was very basic, maybe we expected too much

• 1Do not do it

  Don't do it. Pure animal cuelty. Turtles stolen from their natural habitat to be put in fresh water which is slowly killing them. Do not support this unethical cruel activity. Turtles can also bite.

About Zanzibar City

Zanzibar City is the main town of Zanzibar island, and its old Stone Town of carved doors and narrow lanes carries Swahili, Arab and Indian history.

Stone Town is the old heart of Zanzibar City, a maze of narrow lanes, coral-stone houses and carved wooden doors, shaped by centuries of Arab, Indian, Persian and European traders. The House of Wonders, the Old Fort and the Sultan's Palace face the seafront, and Forodhani Gardens fills with food stalls at dusk. The Anglican cathedral stands on the site of a former slave market, with a sobering memorial nearby.
