Zanzibar excursions & day tours

Yes for the tours whose price tables list it: most excursions are priced by pickup area (for example 'Beach hotel' vs 'Stone Town'), and transport is listed among the inclusions. Send your hotel name with your enquiry and we confirm the pickup zone and price.

Snorkeling equipment is included on the snorkel trips. Confidence in water varies by person and trip — tell us who is swimming when you enquire (including children) and we will confirm what the day involves and what safety equipment is provided.

Your guide decides on safety grounds and the boat stays ashore when the sea is unsafe. If a trip cannot run, the handling of your payment follows the terms confirmed with your booking — ask us before booking if you are travelling in the rainy season.

Swimwear, towel, reef-safe sunscreen, hat, a dry bag for phones, and cash for tips or souvenirs. What is provided depends on the tour — water, lunch and equipment are listed per tour on its Included section.
