I highly recommend the services of Mango travel & tours to everyone. They never let us down during our stay. Thank you.
My family and I visited the beautiful island of Zanzibar. We contacted Mango travel & tours in advance before our flight to the island. We talked to Juma, who is a great person who follows everything that is agreed. He picked us up at the airport even though we had a very early flight, dropped us off at our hotel and organized tours during our stay. The most amazing experience was a trip to Selouse National Park for a one-day Safari. Juma arranged everything from hotel pick up, arranging flight tickets from the island to the park and drop off in the evening. .

One-Day Safari Tour from Zanzibar with Lunch and Pick Up: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Zanzibar City.
How much does One-Day Safari Tour from Zanzibar with Lunch and Pick Up cost?
+
Prices start at $520 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Zanzibar City usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does One-Day Safari Tour from Zanzibar with Lunch and Pick Up take?
+
Plan for about 10 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Zanzibar City is not rushed.
Is One-Day Safari Tour from Zanzibar with Lunch and Pick Up worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 53 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 5 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Zanzibar City, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule One-Day Safari Tour from Zanzibar with Lunch and Pick Up?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is One-Day Safari Tour from Zanzibar with Lunch and Pick Up suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 10-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book One-Day Safari Tour from Zanzibar with Lunch and Pick Up?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Zanzibar City can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Zanzibar City and add a light layer if any part of the 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does One-Day Safari Tour from Zanzibar with Lunch and Pick Up start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Zanzibar City within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Zanzibar City?
+
On Outty we rank every Zanzibar City experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include 3 Hours Private Stone Town Walking Tour, Stone Town Heritage Walk with local Guide, Zanzibar Adventure Quad with Sunset and Transfer Included. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Zanzibar City?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Zanzibar City?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in One-Day Safari Tour from Zanzibar with Lunch and Pick Up?
+
Included: Lunch; All Fees and Taxes; and In-vehicle air conditioning. Not included: Alcoholic beverages. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does One-Day Safari Tour from Zanzibar with Lunch and Pick Up include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 131 listed pickup locations in and around Zanzibar City. Be ready about 15 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is One-Day Safari Tour from Zanzibar with Lunch and Pick Up offered in?
+
It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for One-Day Safari Tour from Zanzibar with Lunch and Pick Up?
+
