​This sailing trip is something I will treasure with me forever! Truly a highlight of my holiday in Zanzibar. What made it even more special was sharing it with my best friend. Just thinking about that day makes me emotional. It was so magical.

A fantastic and truly relaxing experience on a traditional Zanzibar boat, transformed into a dream vessel… While the crew sails along the coast through crystal-clear waters with breathtaking colors.
