About this experience
Zanzibar is beaches with white sand, azure ocean, and hotels. But, of course, not only that. It's also people who were born here and those who came here from the mainland, schools, shops, pharmacies. In general, Zanzibar is not just a tourist resort, it lives a regular life. I want to introduce you to it on a tour of the most popular and developed region of Zanzibar - Nungwi. Welcome! Karibuni sana!
What to expect
Maasai world eco-village
In this complex, the real life of the Maasai - a people from the mainland part of Tanzania who live in a traditional way and have preserved their centuries-old culture - is reproduced. The Maasai came to Zanzibar in search of work and now are also one of its symbols.
School
Next, we will visit a school where children from the village study. My daughter goes here, and I lead a drawing circle. We will interact with children and teachers. It's an interesting and useful experience. 10% of the tour cost is allocated for the development of this school.
Zanzibar fauna
We will swim with turtles in a natural rock pool, see how chameleons change color, feed monkeys, dik-dik antelopes, and adorable bush babies. Crocodiles, ostriches, giant tortoises, cobras, and pythons - at arm's length!
Lunch at a restaurant
When we get hungry, I will take you to lunch at the most popular restaurant in Nungwi, 'Africana,' loved by locals and travelers alike. Here you'll find good service, tasty, simple, and fresh food, reasonable prices, and a unique atmosphere.
That concludes the informative part of the tour. If you are staying in Nungwi, the beach may not surprise you, but if you are coming from another region, you will surely love our beach. After all, Nungwi is primarily known for having the best beaches in Zanzibar. I will take you to Soso Beach, where you can swim and enjoy cool drinks at the bar regardless of tides.
