The oldest tortoise is over 196 years of age. Learn about these giant land tortoises that were brought to Zanzibar from Seychelles.

Wrap up your day at Nakupenda Sandbank, where crystal-clear blue waters are ideal for snorkeling, sunbathing, swimming, and relaxing. Later, be treated to a fresh seafood lunch alongside seasonal tropical fruits and soft drinks.
