Customer Reviews
Safari Blue Zanzibar was hands down the best experience of our entire trip. From the moment we stepped on board, the staff were absolutely amazing — warm, professional, and genuinely passionate about what they do. They took the time to explain the food, the local culture, and the history behind the experience, which made the day feel meaningful rather than just another excursion. There were more than enough refreshments on board for everyone throughout the day, and everything was well organised and relaxed. The boat was not overcrowded, which made a huge difference and allowed us to fully enjoy the experience without feeling rushed or cramped. The swimming and snorkeling locations were breathtaking, with crystal-clear water and beautiful marine life. Lunch was exceptional — easily some of the best food we had during our trip, fresh, flavourful, and generously served. The people truly stood out for their kindness and generosity, making us feel welcomed and cared for at every moment. This was without a doubt the highlight of our Zanzibar trip, and an experience I would happily do over and over again. Highly recommended to anyone visiting Zanzibar. The only downside is how absolutely sunburnt you get - nothing on safari blue, that African sun will burn through SPF50
A trip to Zanzibar is not worth it unless you have gone on the Safari Blue trip. We had a wonderful day of snorkling, swimming and lunch. The seafood lunch and dessert of local fruits was 5 star quality. Our boat team was excellent! Nasu our captain was absolutely brilliant. Well done to Eleanor, Khamisi and team. You can be proud of yourselves!
One of the most legit operations we’ve seen on the island yet. Fantastic experience and amazing snorkeling. A must-do if you’re on the island
