SAFARI BLUE PRIVATE DHOW CHARTER

Looking for something more special?

Want to enjoy a day out with Safari Blue but looking for something more personalized and intimate? Choose our private charter trip with your own private dhow, tailor-made itinerary and desert island experience!

Ideal for honeymooners, friends, family, groups or couples.

A Private Dhow Charter is great way to celebrate a birthday, a wedding, propose to your partner, or just indulge in celebrating life, YOLO!

Sailing in one of our traditional Dhows, beautifully constructed from African mahogany by Zanzibari craftsmen, you will have the opportunity to see and feel the magic of the African Spice Islands up close and personal. We customise the itinerary, activities, food and timing to suit you. On this trip it’s just you, your group and our crew.

We have been operating Safari Blue since 1995 and we are the only operator in Zanzibar licensed to use the name ‘Safari Blue™’. We are the original and the unmissable!
