Unforgettable day sailing with our small daughter. Best day in Zanzibar - A day to remember and the best of our whole trip to Zanzibar. We had such a great time with the Zanzibar Dhow Company Team. From start to finish they were very caring, made us feel so welcome. We had a small child with us and were a bit anxious if she would enjoy it or not but the team were so flexible and accommodating. They made her the captain for the day and she had the best time. We had amazing food which was super fresh and just so delicious. Also big amounts so that everyone was with full belly all the time. We can only recommend this trip and will definitely go again. Thanks so much to the whole team!
