We did multiple trips with Le Kobe; Maluum caves, Jozani forest, Mnemba snorkeling & beach picnic, Spice tour, Prison Island, Stone Town & a Sunset cruise. Suleiman was our driver and local guide and took fantastic care of us, making adjustments to the plans as requested. Our time in Zanzibar was amazing and made all the more special by Suleiman and his team at Le Kobe giving us an insight into the local culture, environment and history.
LE KOBE Adventures arranged two tours for my family: (1) the one-day tour of Stone Town and (2) a short trip to Prison Island to see the giant tortoises. We had spent a week on the mainland on Safari. The trip to Zanzibar was to recover and enjoy the Indian Ocean. Upon arrival, we were met at the airport by our driver, who took us to Stone Town for the tour of Prison Island. The boat ride over to Prison Island on the small skiff was about 30 minutes. Very enjoyable. To see the giant tortoises was incredible. Our guide Ali also took on a historical tour of the British prison After the trip to Prison Island, the transfer driver returned and took us to our beach resort at Kendra Beach, about a 90 minute drive. We stayed at the beach resort for four nights. On our departure day, a transfer driver picked us up from the hotel and took us to Stone Town for a walking tour of the City. Our guide, Edriza,, was very knowledgeable about Stone Town's history. As Queen fans, he also took us to the Freddy Mercury museum. Following lunch, our transfer driver took us to the airport to begin our journey home. Tip. If there is a porter in the parking lot ... take advantage of his offer for services. Our porter was able to negotiate with the airline check-in agents a place at the front of a check-in line. Well worth his gratuity!
We had an incredible experience with LeKobe Safari on the Stone Town and Prison Island tour in Zanzibar. Our guide, Regalo, was simply amazing. He spoke impeccable Italian, making it easy for us to understand every detail of the tour. Regalo provided a thorough and engaging overview of Zanzibar, sharing its fascinating history and highlighting the main sights. His knowledge and passion for the island's culture made the experience both informative and enjoyable. The visit to Stone Town was captivating, with its vibrant streets and rich history, and Prison Island was equally memorable with its giant tortoises and stunning views. We would highly recommend LeKobe Safari and Regalo to anyone visiting Zanzibar. It was a truly unforgettable tour!

I highly recommend using this company.
Fabulous and informative guide Ali. Made us feel very comfortable and provided lots of local information, even helped us with some shopping. Very proactive communication from Jessica and Elvis, making the trip super easy and giving confidence from afar. Great company, who were very professional and helped us have a great time in Stone Town.
