Amazing Zanzibar with Ismail - I have wanted to visit Zanzibar since I was a kid. We got to do it this summer. I contacted them via WhatsApp and created a custom itinerary including stone town tour, Nakupenda and Safari Blue. Ocho was our driver from the airport pickup to airport drop off. What a great driver. What an amazing trip. It was as planned and Ismail was our guide and it was perfect! I would highly recommend Ismail and the team. Don't hesitate, Do it !

Great trip in a beautiful area. - Great trip in a beautiful area. Friendly crew, fresh fruits, snorkeling on well perserved corrals and great food. Blue Lagoon was an excellent way to end a great day at sea. The guide was very friendly and had great knowledge of the area. Bring your own snorkeling equipment if you can.

The best tour in Zanzibar - So far the best tour in Zanzibar, it's a must!!! Prepare yourself for the long journey depends where you are on the island can take 1h30m just to arrive the place to take the boat! Advice to take your snorkel instead of using the one they have there. We pass through amazing places mangrove, sandbank, baoba island go early to enjoy as much as you can of those natural beauties, keep the cameras out and strike your pose!!!

Lots of opportunities for getting in the water! - Full day trip. Swam at a sandbar, snorkelling x2 stops ( pretty good coral and fish but Blue Lagoon better if you only have time for 1 trip ) and swim at mangrove area. Great BBQ lunch and time for more swimming if you wished. Don't be put off by the number of people in each boat as you arrive, you spend most of the time in the water / on the beach. Everyone very friendly and it was well organised

A slightly chaotic but very fun day in a paradisiacal setting. - A day full of color, music and lots of entertainment in a paradisiacal setting. We couldn't have been luckier with the group we were integrated into. Families from Tanzania and Kenya who made us feel at home with their friendliness and good disposition. On the negative side, we only have to point out the guide's lack of experience and commitment, which made the organization of everything seem a little chaotic.

Great staff and food but hmm - We signed up for the full day trip and we’re rather shocked to see how many people would be out on boats that day. Our boat only had 12 but by the time you get to the destinations eg sandbank, snorkelling it’s full of people which is a shame. Food was really good and the staff were helpful and kind. Our dhow had a rather a serious leak on the return so they spent a lot of it pumping out water. These things really ought not happen on a very expensive day out. Credit to the staff and food but the operation is a bit too mass market for us.

NOT RECOMMENDED! - **Safari Blue Zanzibar** Our experience with this trip was far from what the sellers had promised us. The price-quality ratio was extremely disappointing. We paid 90 dollars for two people, which turned out to be far too much. After a one-hour bus ride, we arrived at a location where we boarded a boat with about 20 other people for another one-hour boat ride. Once we arrived at a sandbank, we were given a fruit breakfast, but we weren’t the only ones there: around 25 boats arrived, making the sandbank overcrowded with tourists. There was nothing else to do on or around the sandbank. After a 45-minute break, we continued to the snorkeling spot, a 20-minute ride. There were about 20 boats, and everyone was dropped into the water at the same time. The crew fed the fish, but there was no real snorkeling tour. It was far too crowded, and we constantly bumped into other tourists. We ended up snorkeling for just 10 minutes before getting back on the boat. We then took a short boat trip to a lunch spot, where we had a one-hour break. The lunch was well-prepared and there was plenty of food for everyone. After lunch, we visited a mangrove forest, where we could swim for just 10 minutes. Due to the tide, the mangroves were barely visible, so it wasn’t very impressive. After that, we endured a 1.5-hour boat ride and a one-hour bus ride back to the hotel. In short, while the trip was beautifully described and the photos looked amazing, it turned out to be a highly commercialized experience. You pay way too much for an experience that offers very little. NOT RECOMMENDED!

Overpriced trip to sellers island - Overpriced trip with alot of salesmen on the island you go for lunch. The lunch was ok but everything is extra. Went to the three and took a picture of a cocnut crab and one of the guys there insisted that i had to pay for taking the picture. I told him to go …. Yourself. All the other people there felt thretend and payed up 5 dollars each for the pictures. The snorkeling was disepointing cause the visability is low, but if its your first time snorkeling is an ok experience i guess. The guide and the boatguys was cool people tho. But again, overpriced!!!

1 star for overall experience - We payed through trip advisor for the trip almost 220$( 2 persons), wich we tought that would be ok. Right after someone local wrote me that I should pay 70$ more for the taci, because is too far from the meeting spot, with a mention here that nothing regarding this was in the advertised tour. Also, we tried to cancel it, but it wasn’t possible, because we booked the trip with 10 h before it. Also, I did not manage to get help from tripadvisor, so, another draw back. The tour was decent, bank sand, snorkeling spot, good grilled food and baobab tree, but it was very crowdy duting the whole tour. There after we discussed some fellow tour mates we found out that the tour costed them around 100-120$ ( 2 persons) so we payed 170-190$ more than the other. A total disgrace! 0 stars, Highly not recommended!

disappointing activity - This Blue safari is certainly not worth the money. You are on a boat with too many people, then with all the passengers of all boats on a mini island and the snorkelling is also disappointing because all those boats demolish the little coral that is there with their anchors. We also had to deal with a sinking boat, partly due to the poor mooring capabilities of the captain. As a result, the boat sank. That was at the beach, but the sinking could also have happened in the middle of the sea: how unsafe is that.
