Swim with rescued sea turtles in Salaam Cave, Zanzibar. Read about the $50 private tour, transport, timing, conservation, and practical drawbacks.
“Loved seeing and swimming with the turtles in the cave. Wasn’t overcrowded at all, only four other people there at the same time. The only thing I’d say is it was not three hours; we had maybe 45 minutes in the cave and did feel as though we were being waited on to get out; however, that was plenty of time as it is a small area.”

Review of Zanzibar’s private 9-hour tour, with Jozani Forest, turtle swimming, Kuza Cave, Paje Beach, and The Rock Restaurant.
“This was a fantastic activity! My friend and I enjoyed a private tour which started with swimming with the dolphins. Our guides were so knowledgeable and spotted them very quickly! We then had a beautiful breakfast while getting to know our guide, Mohammed, who had a wealth of knowledge about Zanzibar. Swimming with the turtles was a huge highlight and the turtles seemed very happy and content. Mohammed and our driver, Sharif, gave us plenty of time and made sure we didn’t feel rushed at any time. Seeing Kuza cave was also a surreal experience not to be missed. The Rock Restaurant was absolutely stunning and was a great way…”
Review of Zanzibar’s Prison Island and Jozani Forest tour, with tortoises, red colobus monkeys, snorkeling, transport, costs, and practical tips.
“The conditions for the tortoises on Prison Island are poor. The place is not a sanctuary or a conservation center. The tortoises are kept in a small, fenced area with many tourists. They cannot move freely, and their environment feels unnatural. Overall, it seems more like a prison for tortoises than a place focused on animal welfare or protection. I would skip prison island and only go to jozani forest. The guide and driver, transportation and everything else was great. We got to see red colobus monkeys on their natural habitat in jozani forest.”

Swim, feed, and snorkel with rescued sea turtles at Zanzibar’s Baraka Natural Aquarium, with hotel pickup and a practical value review.
“A program tökéletes volt, a teknősök között lenni elképesztő élmény. Plusz pont, hogy nem volt tömeg, sorban állás, és így is másfél órán keresztül voltunk a medencében az állatokkal. Tényleg harapnak ha a nekik szánt tengeri fű túl közel kerül az ember làbához, erre figyelni kell. Mindkettőnket megharapott egy, de nyilván ez a mi hibánk volt, túl közel adtuk nekik az ételt. Egyébként ez sem vészes élmény, kicsit bekékült a helye, semmi komolyabb.”
