Beautiful sites but needing staff training
Jazmin_A, Jan 2024
The Positive: Beautiful sights with nice lunch The Negative: The tour was overall unorganized. The name of the tour did not match the name of the company who sanctioned the excursion. Following our arrival to our meeting location by our private driver, there was no one at the site to help us or explain what was to come next. Our driver was able to communicate and help us get our wristbands and fins for snorkeling. Afterwards, we waited an additional 30 minutes with no direction. Eventually we followed a group of people and were led down steps to several dhow boats. We were then told, “you guys get in that boat”. They never confirmed our name or which group we were with even after asking to do so. The overall rest of the excursion was very chaotic and disappointing. It rained and the men on our dhow covered the patrons in a tarp instead of covering the dhow in the tarp. Several other occurrences we encountered while on the excursion were upsetting. There were not appropriate timings of the stops, no direction, from our “guides”, guides dressed in street clothes, asleep on dhow or on cellular phone, women chain smoking at the lunch table and our dhow, and late arrival back to our pickup location. Would not do again or truly recommend, but the seeing the sandbank and lagoon was beautiful.
Fantastic memorable trip

Travelling by dhowboat to the beautiful sights of Zanzibar is an experience in itself. The crew couldn’t have done more for us and provided amazing lunch, drinks and fruits. It was quite busy on the sandbanks but I know this is something they cannot control. Thank you so much!

My partner and I recently went on this excursion. It was a great day and well organised from start to finish. Our guide was great and also acted as our personal photographer which was a lovely gesture. The seafood bbq was fantastic. Would definitely recommend!
