🌿 Jozani Forest Tour – A Journey into Zanzibar’s Wild Heart
08:30 – 13:00
08:30 – Hotel Pickup
Your morning begins with a scenic drive to Jozani Forest, the last remaining natural forest on Zanzibar and a true sanctuary of biodiversity. Located in the heart of the island, this national park spans over 44 km² — around 3% of Zanzibar’s total area — and remains untouched by agriculture or urban development.
🌳 Welcome to the Jungle
Step into a tropical wonderland of towering trees, tangled vines, and the humid scent of life. Sunlight filters through the emerald canopy, illuminating the forest floor and guiding you along peaceful walking trails through this lush, living ecosystem.
🐒 Meet the Red Colobus Monkeys
The stars of the forest are the endangered Red Colobus monkeys, one of the rarest primates in the world — and found only on Zanzibar. Once critically endangered, their numbers have grown from 1,500 to over 2,500 thanks to dedicated conservation efforts and the support of local communities. You’ll have the rare opportunity to observe them up close, socializing and playing in the trees — wild, free and utterly fascinating.
🦎 A Forest Full of Secrets
Beyond the colobus, the forest is home to blue (Sykes’) monkeys, tiny suni antelopes, chameleons, monitor lizards, snakes, butterflies and over 50 species of birds. Keep your eyes open — every turn on the trail may reveal a new wonder.
🐾 Immersive Nature Walk
Spend about 3 hours in the forest with an experienced guide who will lead you through mangroves, tropical woodlands, and conservation areas. This is not just a tour — it’s a chance to feel the rhythm of an ancient ecosystem.
13:00 – Return to your hotel, refreshed, inspired, and reconnected with the wild side of Zanzibar.
