What to expect

You will meet the women of Jambiani, see how they live their lives and the skills that they have. This is a wonderful chance to get off the usual tourist trail and learn how local people live and work. You will be able to take amazing pictures of the women you meet and village life plus the chance to purchase products made by the women you have met all at very reasonable prices

Take the challenge of making rope and turning it into a mat, learn how to wear a kanga, have a henna painting and learn to weave. You will watch as the women tend the sea weed beds and soften the coconut husks ready for rope making.

You will have a simple lunch in one of your hosts' houses and after all this activity relax aboard a dhow where if the tide is right you will be able to enjoy wonderful snorkelling in the Indian Ocean.
