5 Days Zanzibar Beach Escape - To unwind after the adventure, we spent 5 days in Zanzibar, exploring Stone Town, Nungwi, and Kendwa. The beaches were paradise – white sand, turquoise waters, and stunning sunsets! We also enjoyed a spice tour, snorkeling, and a visit to Stone Town and Prison Island. The hospitality in Zanzibar was top-notch, and it was the perfect way to relax after the climb and safari. A huge thank you to Rede Tours and Safaris for making our dream trip come true! Everything was seamless, from airport transfers to accommodations and activities. If you're looking for a reliable and professional tour company in Tanzania, look no further! Highly recommended!

Do not recommend - We booked a trip and the tour guide didnt show up. We waited for him for an hour, we called him a few times and he didnt answer. Besides that he wrote us in the early morning that we have to pay additionally 25$ per person for 'best experience'.
