It was amazing! We had the chance to see dolphins!😍 It’s an experience I’d like to relive again ❤️😁
l « Merci beaucoup pour votre excellent retour ! Nous sommes ravis d'apprendre que vous avez vécu une expérience incroyable et que vous avez eu la chance de voir des dauphins. Ce sont des moments comme ceux-ci qui rendent nos aventures si spéciales. Nous avons hâte de vous accueillir à nouveau pour une expérience inoubliable ! ❤️🐬 »
The tour consists of 2 parts. The first one, we'll take you to a reef where we snorkel. Let's be objective, it's not bad but not extraordinary either. The sea is rough, so difficult to stabilize, the reef is not very extensive so you have a fairly high concentration of boats and people. The fish you see there are also nothing out of the ordinary if you’ve ever been to other places in the Indian Ocean. However, the ride on the atoll is fantastic, it's breathtaking, and just for that, it's definitely worth it.
Merci pour vos conseils, bienvenue à Zanzibar, en Tanzanie
50cl of water for “the drinks included” and some fruit without any snacks as specified. No dolphin or anything except a few fish and corals almost non-existent. No possibility to pick us up from the hotel “depending on the tide”, a guide that simply explains that “there are fish” and a single spot saturated with boats where we are supposed to die of thirst for several hours. After 20 minutes we asked to leave the boat because there was nothing to do and offered to pay half the amount in compensation... it could have stopped there but the manager of the agency preferred to drive us to the police station to cripple us all our money. Fortunately, the police agreed with us and we had to give more money than expected to get our peace. Absolute fraud
Cher client, nous promettons de prendre des mesures à ce sujet dès que possible, mais les coraux de l'île de Mnemba sont toujours vivants et bien sûr, nous faisons de notre mieux pour vous faire passer un bon moment, veuillez vous excuser pour tout et vous faire l'expérience eu mais nous donnerons certainement une expérience formidable avec notre guide d'expérience
This trip was amazing! A lot of animation very friendly staff! We snorkeled in a simply fantastic place , crystal clear water like never before ! Island of Memba really worth visiting crystal clear water and amazing white sand!
gracias por tu aprecio, esperamos verte pronto!
We took a tour to see the dolphins and then some snorkeling. It was a bit disappointment with the dolphins. So many boats chasing the dolphins. If you plan on seeing them, get a guide that will take you very early in the morning. Get in and Get out before the masses of boats arrive.
Thank you for sharing your ideas.to us the best time to swim with dolphins is early in the morning.for any other details you can write to us the we give you an itinerary. Thanks in advance
The kings of the feed. Certainly we see some beautiful fish, but surely because of kilos of bread crumbs left by dozens of boats on site 😕 Corals are also poorly developed. Nothing to do with the few photos seen on Tripadvisor The meal that follows is rather good (it is an "option"). In short, nothing to do with a snorkeling trip to Polynesia.
Salut! c'est dans la nature de garder les poissons en sécurité et d'augmenter le nombre de poissons quand nous avons essayé de les nourrir absolument le nombre de poissons augmentant de jour en jour parce que ces poissons sont bien sûrs ne permettent pas de marcher sur le corail donc pas besoin de écrit une telle critique de plainte, ce que nous aimerions partager, c'est que vous êtes les bienvenus, nos chers clients, le service, nous nous assurerons que vous vivez une expérience abordable de tout le temps.
Though not quite as flexible as seals, some dolphins can briefly travel at speeds of 29 kilometres (18 mi) per hour or leap about 30 feet (9.1 m)Dolphins use their conical teeth to capture fast-moving prey. They have well-developed hearing which is adapted for both air and water. It is so well developed that some can survive even if they are blind. Some species are well adapted for diving to great depths. They have a layer of fat, or blubber, under the skin to keep warm in the cold water.
Thank you for this awesome details,we are excited to welcoming you in our paradise island of Zanzibar where you will have this all experience! See you soon here
This is a great trip but it's good for older kids because they stay on boat for snorkeling from 3_4 hours and you see Dolphins after that we go to the beach for yam yam and you can enjoy the beach and relax
Welcome back to Zanzibar this trip has totally depends on the sea tide of Zanzibar island because there’re some days when it’s low tide you will have a great chance to lay on down to white sandbank as the island is private,after snorkeling lay down there with this crystal water with white sand.
Found Mr. Zanzibar on TripAdvisor and contacted him through WhatsApp. He was very responsive from day one. We did two tours with him. First day we did snorkeling and swimming with dolphins. He is very polite, fun loving and knowledgeable. He made our trip memorable. My teenage son had so fun on the trip. Highly recommend him for any activities in Zanzibar. Very trustworthy and reliable. Definitely coming back here.
