This guided tour will take you to Jozani natural forest; the smaller trees and shrubs make several sub-canopies under the highest canopy.  You will walk through the nature trail of the forest, which is a habitat for many species of animals, and birds.  It is famous for its Red Colobus Monkey, the rare specie.  The Zanzibar RED COLOBUS has been isolated from its mainland counterparts for at least ten to fifteen thousand years, thus producing distinct sub-species with different calls, eating habits and coat patterns. Jozani Forest has become the last stronghold in the world for this particular type of colobus.

What to expect

Head to the south of the island of Zanzibar, where the Jozani Forest awaits you. Take a 2-hour tour through its stunning scenery, experiencing the wonder and delight of your natural surroundings.

The forest is home to a number of endemic species, including the Zanzibar red colobus monkey. The mangrove boardwalk takes you above the swamp, where, depending on the tide, you can see Indian Ocean tropical fish flitting between the mangrove roots and crabs scuttling across the mud.

Your park ranger will take you on a nature trail, lined with eucalyptus and mahogany trees, and explain the medicinal properties of various plants. As you walk, learn about the animals, birds, and reptiles that make their home in the various habitats of this tropical rainforest.
