Hi! This is Khamis, and I know the most interesting places in the tropical island of Zanzibar, from extraordinary natural areas to historical remains from the ancient world that I crave to share with travellers from all over. Booking me, you can be sure to obtain a great quality service from a licensed tour operator, with no rush or hurry. Zanzibar's ravishing beaches and its historic Stone Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in Zanzibar City, have utterly captivated me, and I can proudly say I have been guiding for 2 decades. I would love to contextualize you on the history of this archipelago, once a flourishing trading hub, which became a melting pot of African, Arab, Indian and European cultures. As we explore together, expect to see the vivid shades of every color imaginable, as well as the textures and vibrant energy of our seafront and our markets, with locals greeting you by saying “jambo” (hello) and “karibu” (welcome) every day. So get immersed in all that Zanzibar has to offer the right way; with a knowledgeable and polite guide that you can trust, who will focus on providing you with the kind of experience you wish to get, at your own pace.

On this tour, we're going to do the famous Safari Blue experience, visiting Fumba Village & the Menai Bay Conservation Area. We wilI be sailing across the bay on a traditional wooden dhow, and I will personally introduce you to its captain! You're going to have the opportunity to swim and snorkel, contemplating all sorts of sealife, from colourful fish to corals & sea millipedes. You'll also get to taste fresh island fruits, and even see a towering millenary tree that people visit every day. On a personal note, I was born and raised in Zanzibar, and lived my whole life just a 10 minute walk from the beach, which made me into a passionate, avid swimmer. Rest assured you'll be in good hands enjoying the water with me!
-After picking you up, we'll go on a scenic drive for around 40 mins to Fumba Village. -On arrival, I'll help you put on flotable life jackets before getting on board a motorized wooden dhow. -We'll then set sail for around 30 mins towards a beach, and we could make an optional stop mid-water in order to contemplate starfish. I'd provide you with the snorkelling equipment if you were interested. -Next, we'll arrive to the beach where you'll get to taste an array of different fruits, and to swim for a while if you'd like. -Afterwards, we'll return to the wooden dhow & back into the water to enjoy some more snorkelling. -We'll then sail to Kwale Island where you'd enjoy a buffet of local food, with plenty of seafood! -Later, we'll walk to see the huge Baobab Tree, a vegetal monument. -Next, we'll visit a lagoon with crystal clear waters where you could also swim in. -We'll then get back on the wooden dhow, and return to our vehicle. -At last, I'll drop you off where I picked you up from.
