Embark on a full-day adventure to the extreme northern tip of Zanzibar, traveling through the historical villages of Maruhubi and Mvuleni, where you’ll explore ancient Portuguese ruins that whisper stories of the island’s past. Your journey leads to Nungwi, a lively fishing village known for its rich cultural traditions, where locals live in harmony with the ocean. Discover the village’s Turtle Aquarium, home to rescued sea turtles and a range of marine life, and visit the traditional dhow boatyard, where skilled craftsmen build Zanzibar’s iconic wooden sailing vessels by hand.

Stroll through the local market, a colorful hub of activity filled with fresh produce, spices, and handcrafted treasures. It’s the perfect place to soak up the local atmosphere and maybe pick up a souvenir or two. After exploring, unwind on the white sandy beaches of Nungwi, swim in the turquoise waters, or simply relax in the sun. The highlight of the day comes with a delicious, locally prepared lunch featuring the best of Zanzibari cuisine. Feast on freshly caught seafood, spiced rice dishes, coconut curries, and an array of traditional Swahili delicacies — all made with authentic island flavors you won’t find anywhere else.
