Description

We offer private Taxi from hotels to the rock Restaurant and drop-off to the hotel. The Rock Restaurant is one of the best sightseeing available in the East of Zanzibar in which most of Zanzibar travelers visit and make their good memories. Some travelers prefer taking memorable beautiful photos and videos by phones, Cameras or even drones. During the high tide, some prefer to swim on the beach as it is beautiful while others prefer to have lunch or dinner with their own cost. Once after finishing, normally the driver will be ready to pick you up again for transfer back to your beautiful place. For those who prefer to have lunch or dinner, it is advised to contact the management of the restaurant through their website for at least four days in advance so they can reserve the tables as most of the time, the restaurant is full booked.

Great setting.

Good experience, choose the time well because the sun sets early at this time of year; we went there in September. And we had booked for 6:00 PM, it was really perfect.

Operator response

Nous sommes ravis de savoir que vous avez passé une belle expérience et que l’horaire de 18h était parfait pour profiter pleinement du coucher de soleil en septembre. Merci d’avoir choisi Mo Tours & Safaris. Nous espérons avoir le plaisir de vous accueillir à nouveau lors d’une prochaine visite à Zanzibar ! Bien cordialement, Mo Tours & Safaris
