Posted on Zdenka DJune 11, 2026Verified Blue Green Zanzibar Tours and Safari Our experience with Blue Green Zanzibar Tours and Safari was excellent! We took 6 trips together. All of them went very smoothly. Communication with the guide Wadi was very friendly and fast. Wadi and the entire team who took care of us during trips were very nice and helpful. They willingly met our requests and wishes. Prices and calculations for the trips were transparent and final. Reliability, punctuality and care! We definitely recommend Blue and Green Zanzi.Posted on Renata RJanuary 29, 2026Verified Amazing tour – highly recommended! The tour was excellent. Our guide, Nassor, picked us up directly at the ferry terminal and stayed with us from start to finish. He shared many interesting stories and demonstrated great knowledge throughout the entire tour. We first took a boat to Prison Island (the turtle island), then visited the sandbank, where a wonderful seafood lunch was prepared for us. After that, we returned to the city for the historical tour. The team also helped us with purchasing the ferry tickets, which was extremely helpful and made everything much easier. I highly recommend this tour!Posted on Sahil MJanuary 8, 2026Verified A Dream Realized In Zanzibar My Family's Unforgettable Week in Zanzibar with Blue Green Zanzibar Tour and Safari Like many, my first glimpse of Zanzibar was through the captivating videos on TikTok. The turquoise waters, pristine beaches, and vibrant culture sparked a dream within me, a dream I finally realized this past November with my family. As an Irish native, planning a trip to such a distant and exotic locale felt daunting, especially when initial attempts to connect with various tourist companies proved fruitless. Misinformation was rampant, and responses were slow or nonexistent, leaving me feeling frustrated and uncertain. That's when I stumbled upon Blue Green Zanzibar Tour and Safari. From the moment I reached out, I experienced a level of responsiveness and care that was truly exceptional. Wadi, our contact at Blue Green Zanzibar Tour and Safari, immediately understood my vision for a week long family adventure in Zanzibar. He meticulously crafted a personalized itinerary, taking into account our interests and preferences. From the moment we touched down at the airport, Blue Green Zanzibar Tour and Safari took care of everything. A friendly driver greeted us and transported us to our hotel, setting the tone for a week of seamless travel. Each day, our dedicated driver arrived promptly, ready to whisk us away to new and exciting experiences. We explored spice plantations, swam with dolphins, wandered through the historic streets of Stone Town, and relaxed on the beaches. all without a single worry or logistical hiccup. What truly set Blue Green Zanzibar Tour and Safari apart was their commitment to comfort, relaxation, and attention to detail. Every aspect of our trip was carefully considered, ensuring a stress-free and enjoyable experience for the entire family. There were no hidden fees, no unexpected surprises, and no high-pressure sales tactics. Just genuine hospitality and a desire to make our vacation truly special. I wholeheartedly recommend Blue Green Zanzibar Tour and Safari to anyone planning a trip to this enchanting island. While there are many travel companies to choose from, Blue Green Zanzibar Tour and Safari stands out for its transparency, integrity, and personalized service. With Wadi at the helm, you can rest assured that your trip will be meticulously planned and flawlessly executed. He is an amazing person who organized my trip and everything go perfect, smoothly.

Thank you so much taking back amazing memories, the guide, the captain and the crew members were all friendly polite and the must fun. And the lunch oh my god it was scrumptious.. Thank you once again!Posted on Jürgen HDecember 6, 2025Verified Ein Erlebnis Die Tour hat uns sehr gut gefallen, besonders die Besichtigung der Gewürzfarm. Die deutschsprachige Guide war klasse. Es war ein echtes Erlebnis, auch für meine Frau, die nur schlecht Englisch versteht. Das Mittagessen und der Nachtisch mit frischen Früchten war sehr schmackhaft. Die deutschsprachige Tour durch Stone Town war ebenfalls gut, aber insgesamt nicht so toll wie die Spice Farm.Posted on DTDOctober 28, 2025Verified Outstanding experience with Blue Green Safari Zanzibar! We had an amazing experience with Blue Green Safari. From start to finish, the team was highly professional, punctual, and incredibly accommodating. We were traveling with two toddlers, and they went out of their way to make everything smooth and comfortable for us — adjusting plans when needed and always being patient and kind. What really stood out was their genuine care and flexibility. They didn’t just treat us like clients; they truly cared about our experience. They even helped us arrange donations for a local school and village, which meant a lot to us and made the trip feel even more meaningful. If you’re planning any tours or excursions in Zanzibar, I can’t recommend Blue Green Safari enough. They’re reliable, thoughtful, and go above and beyond to ensure you have a memorable and stress-free experience.Posted on Ellie Theaker PriceOctober 16, 2025Verified Dolphin, snorkelling and Mnemba island tour Amazing experience! 100% recommend this company and the dolphin/snorkelling trip.
