Zanzibar Tower - Good little guides very invested. The visits of dolphins, forest and rock are really nice ... the cave and the beach a little less. But other than that I recommend this intense day but very interesting and friendly. Big up to Ibrahim.

Best one day tour you can take to see everything outside of stone town. - I decided to take a tour last minute to explore the island. I did the Dolphin Swim, Snorkel, Kuza Cave, Jozani Forest, Paje Beach, Rock Restaurant. My guides were Ibrahim and driver Shafi. They picked me up on time at my hotel, the car was super comfortable. I was by myself because I booked a solo tour. So all attention is to you. I enjoy traveling alone so this was the perfect tour for me. Both guys were kind and helpful. Informed me about the area, answered questions and took pics of me where I wanted. We actually skipped the beach and spent more time at other places. They were flexible with my day. The dolphin trip was incredible. The boat guide was so funny. Knew everyone and helped with snorkeling and found the best spots to swim. For the best snorkeling experience, bring your own glasses. They provided it, but mine kept getting water inside. The cave was super cool. Worth coming back to as they offer music and drum classes and also cooking classes. I was almost alone in the cave. So perfect for you. In the forest we saw all types of monkeys. Ibrahim knew exactly where to find them! Overall one of the best tours. If you want to see a lot of the island in one day, do this tour.

The Treasures of Zanzibar... - A wonderful experience with Amina and driver Harfizi. They promptly picked me up and enjoyed getting to know each other on our way to the dolphin tour! With our captain in tow Amina and I set sail to capture a glimpse of dolphins and we were not disappointed. My sea legs are not fully formed and could not handle the various blue seas. Amina, my Dada, took very good care of me as I had to cancel the remaining trip. Having to pullover a few times to rid myself of the last couple of Zanzibar meals they were both supportive and patient with me. I was delivered safe and somewhat sound to my hotel with well wishes! I'm sure we would have had a great day if only I could've handled it but all worth it just to see the dolphins and meet the treasures of Zanzibar, Amina and Harfizi!!

Great trip about 9 hours well worth the price - Tour guide, Mr P and miss Hammy picked us up at our Hotel dead on time, explained to us what we would be doing on the day,
Took a boat out to see the Dolphins was lucky enough to see them.
Then we had time to snorkel, had some fresh fruit for lunch, then of to jozani forest to find the monkeys which we did, as we walked through the forest our guide was telling us all about the trees and ferns around us, which was very interesting male and female ferns. then we went onto Kuza Cave which was very nice. You climbed down some steps and then you was in this cave and the water is natural water and its temperature is about 23°. It was lovely and refreshing.
Would recommend this trip, good price tour guides friendly and knowledgeable about the area,

Tour of Zanzibar - We were disappointed that there was no email or whats app communication prior to the tour and we went ashore hoping that our confirmed tour would happen. Fortunately it did. We spent nearly an hour going thru traffic just to get away from the port! The driver was very skilled and used whatever routes to get us to the first stop on the tour. The driver was very talented and did many things to try and make it a good tour. The guide was unengaging and the driver really did his best to be informative, humorous, and did his best to share information about the city and the other sites while the tour guide was almost falling asleep. The driver & guide for the dolphin boat was very skilled, friendly and attentive. Our guide did give us a two minute summary of the monkeys we were able to see.
We would give the driver a 5* review and the guide a 2* review = total 3* for the tour because of the shortcomings of the guide.
We were pleased to be able to see some of the beauty of Zanzibar.

A day at Kuza beach, Cozumel - Nice beach, regular food, ceviche additional fee.Just be aware if you book directly, face to face at the terminal they will oblige you to pay in mexican pesos, the change will add 8 $! If you are a family of 5 this will add 40$...this was for the "Kuza de luxe" day pass.they will not tell you! Food is good but regular.Definitively not the VIP from Nachi Cocom I love so much!advantage here is transportation is included but you are obliged to go back at the time set otherwise you may go earlier but need to pay a taxi fee! Overall experience regular.Good for family.

Underwhelming - The tour guides were kind and did their job well. But the tour itself is not worth it.
The dolphin chase is extremely disturbing. The poor animals are chased by 50 boats everytime they come to the surface to breathe while some ignorant tourists try to jump in the water which likely stressed them even more. Sad there are no regulations.
I have seen rotator dolphins on the coast of Brazil, where you can casually ride the boat and the dolphons simply choose to follow and jo around, completely undisturbed. You are not allowed to jump in as it is not a smart idea.
I bet tourists have gotten ran over by boats or attacked by a dolphins. If it has not happened yet, it is bond to.
The forest is also underwhelming. You walk in the middle of it to see maybe a handful of monkeys. There are also other part of the world w much better experience for that, this is not the place for it.
The cave is okay…
The rock restaurant was the only decent part, very pretty even though the food is not quite worth the price, it is still worth saying you tried it.
Paje beach is cool to watch the kite surfers, not great for swimming.
I would not recommend this tour at all.
