Customer Reviews

Amazing activity. We booked the afternoon slot which was less busy and it meant the places were not overcrowded. First you travel to find dolphins, we were lucky and saw many. If you are a strong swimmer you may get into the water to see them. Then you go to a snorkelling spot with colourful fish and starfish and lastly you go to the sandbank, which is amazing to stand on and see the 360 views. The boat provides life jacket, snorkel, flippers, fruit and water. Fauzi was a great guide very helpful when I was scared in the water, and idris was a great driver. Thank you.

Amazing experience. Isac our guide was very friendly and helped us with everything we needed. Unfortunately we didn't see the dolphins because the waves were too high but the sand bank next to Mnemba Islandwas breathtaking. Also the snorkeling was something special. So many species of fish next to a coral reef. I Totally recommend this tour. I don't regret it didn't see the dolphins because every other thing was perfect.

Our trip to Mnemba Island was amazing,we really enjoyed! Driver Salum and our guide Fau were very helpful and friendly! We totally recommend it!
