Prison Island Half-Day Tour fra Zanzibar





Beskrivelse
Changuu Island, også kendt som Prison Island, ligger ca. 30 min. Med båd fra Stone Town. Øen var tidligere ejet af en araber og blev brugt til indespærring af ildfaste slaver, men ingen fanger blev nogensinde indkvarteret her, men øen blev en karantænestation for gul feberepidemier. Den blev købt af General Lloyd Mathews, og fængslet (mål), som stadig står, blev bygget i 1893 og dermed navnet "PRISON ISLAND". I 1919 sendte den britiske guvernør i Seychellerne en gave i form af fire Aldabra-gigantiske skilpadder til Changuu. I øjeblikket anses denne art for at være sårbar og er blevet placeret på IUCN-røde liste. Der er et dedikeret fundament på øen, der ser efter skildpadds velfærd. Denne tur inkluderer et besøg på den historiske fængselsø med sin gigantiske skildpadde. Mens du er på øen, vil du kunne observere og fodre skildpadder, svømme, solbade og snorkle.

The guide was really nice and kind. We had the opportunité to do snorkelling and he explained the while historical background of the island. The encountzr with the turtles was magical !
Overpriced — this is a tiny island with not much to see. Our guide didn't even flag the museum. It was definitely underwhelming.
I really loved the entire island. The tortoises were interesting but the museum outlined the history in an interesting and fascinating way. The shop was one of the best I've seen with a large variety of items. The pace was leisurely. We never felt hurried even though the island got a little crowded as the day went by. I would recommend arriving as early as possible to avoid the crowds.
Turtle Island was fascinating. The boat ride out was also an adventure. Our guide was very friendly and excellent. However, Viator Should have notified people that they must Be prepared to walk out in a foot of water to the boat, therefore shorts or raised pants legs are mandatory.. Also, the boat trip out to the island had very rough water which guests should be prepared for.
The French speaking guides have excellent training and you learn a lot. For those we had
Thou I have visited Prison island a few times already, it’s always nice to see it through another’s eyes. The trip through small boats is safe, we travelled with young children under 10 years. What I noticed was the water current is higher toward the end of the day, so perhaps not the very ideal time to travel! The peacock addition makes the place even more interesting!
TOUR to Prison Island together with Nakupenda, a prison that has never really been used as such but as a quarantine place and where giant turtles were important from the Seychelles...many is giant. Then you go to Nakupenda which in local language means "I love you", here I have no words to describe the beauty the colors that there are .. a tongue of sand that appears and then disappears after a few hours, where you prepare the fish cooked at the moment .. delicious fresh fruit, crystal clear sea ... the best experience for me ..
We relied on this excursion to Gianduiotto. Good organization. Unfortunately the weather was cloudy and we could not fully enjoy the beauty of the tongue of sand. Interesting and fun prsion island with its turtles!
Very nice trip to prison island. Great driver and car and our guide was very friendly and informative on what we visited.
Coupled with the spices and the Stone Town visit, the tour was very informative, especially as we were with a French guide! Out of time place that has been successful, with structures that are actually aging but that have been recycled in restaurants open in high season (which is not the case in April/May). The turtles are impressive and if you are an observer, you may be lucky enough to see one or two small "antelopes". Go around the whole island to take beautiful pictures and why not swim if your organizers give you time!
