With the Turtles - The pick up was easy, was a little concerned because we were staying at an Airbnb but got the drivers information and was able to message him directly so there was no confusion. Was here exactly when he said he would be here, super friendly and nice. While my friend and I were down with the sea turtles, our driver stayed and even took our clothes and belongings back to the car for safe keeping and waited while we looked in the shop. The experience was nice lots of people there trying to get into the cave with the sea turtles. There was a line but it went fairly quickly and there was no pushing or shoving. We were only there for about 30 minutes with the turtles which I felt was a good amount of time. Recommendation to everyone that goes, make sure you bring a towel and change of clothes cause we didn't and regret it a little haha.

A Hidden Gem in Zanzibar 🌿🐢 - Visiting Salaam Cave Aquarium was one of the most memorable experiences of our trip to Zanzibar. The natural cave setting is absolutely stunning, and getting the chance to swim with the turtles in their crystal-clear waters was magical. The team was friendly, informative, and made us feel completely at ease. Feeding the turtles was a highlight — they're so gentle and curious! After the experience, we enjoyed the peaceful environment, had refreshments, and appreciated the clean changing facilities. It's a perfect mix of nature, wildlife, and local charm. Highly recommended for families, couples, or anyone looking for a unique and interactive activity in Zanzibar. Don't miss it!

Turtles and friendly driver! - The turtles were so amazing. Truly an experience! Our driver Juma was WONDERFUL! He was readily available to drive us wherever we needed and even made arrangements to bring us to the airport. If you are on the fence of what company to book with, this is the one! They will take care of all your needs

It was an amazing experience - A must do when here! Feed and pet the turtles in an amazing environment… the water was beautiful and not too cold. It was good having a guide and getting picked up direct from our hotel. If you don’t do this you are crazy!
