If you're after a day packed with nature, culture and a good dose of mystery, this private full-day tour ticks all the boxes. It kicks off at Jozani Chwaka Bay National Park – the only national park on the island – where you'll step into a world of winding trails and wild encounters. Keep your eyes on the treetops as you wander through the forest, on the lookout for rare red colobus monkeys, bush babies, duikers, birds and more.
From forest to folklore, your next stop is Muyuni Village. Here, it's all about deep-rooted traditions and local life. You'll meet the community and learn how they craft rope, baskets and makuti thatch – the latter uses dried coconut palm leaves to make roofing materials.
Then, things take a mysterious turn as you explore the legendary Ngonga Cave. With your guide leading the way, you'll discover a world of tunnels, vampire bat tales and ancestral spirits – plus a witchcraft healing ceremony that brings Zanzibar's rich culture to life.
