Zanzibar Island Discovery

Two days covering three of the island's most photographed places.

2 days

A short, high-value trip. The first day pairs Prison Island, with its century-old Aldabra tortoises and prison ruins, with the white sand of Nakupenda and a seafood lunch on the sandbank.

The second day is spent snorkelling the reefs at Mnemba Atoll, some of the clearest water in Zanzibar, with a chance of dolphins on the way out.

Highlights

  • Giant Aldabra tortoises on Prison Island
  • Nakupenda sandbank with seafood lunch
  • Mnemba Atoll snorkelling
  • Dolphin spotting if conditions allow
