Great Spice Farm & Jozani Forest Tour I did the Spice Farm and Jozani Forest combination tour with Zanzibar Ibrahim Tour. I was travelling alone and had the tour to myself, which made it a very relaxed and personal experience. The Spice Farm was very interesting with a knowledgeable guide, followed by a delicious local lunch. Afterwards, we went to Jozani Forest, where we were very lucky and quickly found a large group of Zanzibar Red Colobus Monkeys. Everything was well organized from pickup to drop-off, and I felt safe and well looked after throughout the whole tour. A great experience and definitely recommended!

A wonderful memory! Ibrahim was truly fantastic; he knows his country like the back of his hand and showed it to us with such joy. Ibrahim speaks French, which is quite rare in Zanzibar for a local guide.

Maluun Caves and round-trip transfer: The trip was wonderful. We thoroughly enjoyed it. The driver was very courteous, as was the staff at Maluun Cave. Maluun Cave is a very picturesque place. Snorkeling equipment, water shoes, life jackets (if needed), and towels (very good quality) are provided free of charge. The entire area is very clean. We were also able to observe the monkeys, which can be seen in Jonazi National Park, very closely. Massages are also available. There is a restaurant on site serving light meals. We highly recommend this trip.

Great day at sea We had a lovely 3-hours tour with "Zanzibar Ibrahim Tours" which included snorkeling at the Blue Lagoon and starfish sightings. The snorkeling was amazing and we were very excited to see so many colorful starfish. Captain Moses was lovely, he served us a wonder platter of tropical fruits. Thank you Ibrahim and team! 👏🏾
