How the trip unfolds
A minibus takes you to the pier in the north of the island, then a boat heads to Mnemba atoll, which the listing describes as the largest marine reserve in the area. The boat cruises the clear waters and stops for snorkelling. A bottle of water and fresh fruit are served, then you are taken back to your hotel or the meeting point.
Pick-up or meeting point
The booking offers three options: no pick-up, pick-up in Matemwe or Kiwengwa, or pick-up from the other areas of the island. Without pick-up, you need to be on the beach at 8:30 am, as the boat leaves at 9 am. Choose the option that matches where you are staying.
The tax to plan for
The listing mentions a government tax, paid on the day of the trip and in cash only. It is not included in the displayed price: have the amount ready before you leave. The exact figure is on the listing.
Dolphins: a chance, not a promise
The listing says you may spot dolphins with a bit of luck. If dolphins are the reason you want to go to sea, the trip described on the dolphin swimming page makes them the main focus, with about an hour in their company when they are there.
Few reviews so far
This excursion has few reviews and a modest average rating. The exact figures are on the listing: read it before booking, especially if snorkelling is your priority in Zanzibar.
