everything about the tour was up to standards, from the punctuality in the hotel pick-up, safe and comfortable transport, captain and guides were super attentive, very friendly, lunch was delicious and fresh, plenty of seafood options, lobster, calamari, octopus, tuna. The excursion to Changuu (prison island) was very informative, Nakupenda was a piece of paradise. the boat that took us was a one motor boat, it takes about 30' to get to changuu, maybe 10/15' to Nakupenda and another 15' back to stone town. you won't even feel the time passing as the views are breathtaking. Milano and P. Pequeno (forgot his name, Duma or Dima, can't remember) are absolut gems.
