Villages tour

Duration: Flexible duration
In Unguja

We invite you to meet local residents and discover their daily lives.

Visit a school (outside of class hours only, to avoid disturbing students), share a special moment with families, and take part in everyday activities.

A simple and enriching experience of connection and exchange. To preserve the authenticity of this visit, we do not impose a fixed schedule or set activities. The duration and nature of the tour will be determined on-site by the host family you meet.

Contact us to learn about the different villages located near your hotel.

A portion of the price will be donated to the village. If you would like to bring donations such as notebooks and pens for the school, shared toys like soccer balls, or items such as laundry detergent, bags of rice, or flour, you are welcome to give them directly to the families or to your guide for the schools.
