Travel to the northern tip of Zanzibar and visit the charming village of Nungwi. Traditional markets, paradise beaches, and a turtle sanctuary await you!
North Zanzibar Day Trip
At 9 am we'll pick you up at your hotel in Zanzibar and head north until we reach the village of Nungwi. After about an hour and a half drive through breathtaking scenic areas, we'll arrive at this charming town rich in history and culture and featuring some of the best beaches in Zanzibar. Upon arrival, we'll visit the fish market, a perfect place to have our first contact with the local Nungwi culture.
After experiencing the vibrant hustle and bustle of the Nungwi fish market, we'll visit the Marani Natural Aquarium, where we'll get to hang out with endangered sea turtles and a variety of fish. We'll even be able to swim in the aquarium waters and get up close to the turtles, an unforgettable experience!
We'll return to the mainland and relax on the paradise beaches of Nungwi. You'll get the chance to stroll along the fine white sand, take a dip in the crystal clear waters, or simply sunbathe among the palm trees.
By now you'll have built up an appetite! Our next stop is at a local restaurant to enjoy a traditional-style meal made up of seafood, rice, and vegetables. Yum! Once refreshed and recharged, we'll start our way back to your hotel. Arrival time is scheduled for approximately 5 pm.
