Stop 1

Jozani Forest is the largest area of indigenous forest on Zanzibar. During a guided journey through the forest you will learn the different species of monkeys unique to Zanzibar. Troops of Zanzibar Red Colobus monkeys can be found scrambling from branch to branch in search of food. The monkeys have become acclimatised to people and allow you to capture them in photographs as they eat, play and jump from the treetops. After visiting the red colobus, you will walk across to the Pete-Jozani Mangrove Boardwalk. It entwines through coral thicket vegetation, mangrove forest and across a creek. You walk through mangrove forest which is extremely crucial to Zanzibar’s ecosystems, providing a habitat for many lizards, snakes and birdlife as well as preventing the coastal erosion.

Our guide will take you to Kuza Cave (natural swimming pool) where you will enjoy swimming in the cave after a short brief on the history and then later on enjoy the traditional music played by the local guides working at the area.
