We really enjoyed the boat trip and the places we visited. They took us snorkeling over a coral reef where we saw many different types of fish — we absolutely loved that part! We also visited the mangroves, and later on a small island, we saw the largest baobab tree in Zanzibar. There, we had a delicious meal with a variety of seafood, and for those interested, there were plenty of shops selling local handmade items.

Everything was very well organized. The staff were friendly, and the food was excellent. It was a fun experience shared with a diverse group of people on the boat. The traditional dhow boats made for an incredible and memorable view.
