Safari Blue is the only operator licensed to use the name “Safari Blue”. It is our registered trade name not a generic term for a Zanzibar boat trip.
The company began life back in 1995 and its owner Eleanor is passionate about Zanzibar, respecting it’s people and culture and preserving the stunning environment
A booking with us ensures everything is included from arrival to departure. We provide snorkeling gear, food and drinks throughout the day.
We also take care of the environment by minimizing our footprint, reducing waste, recycling where we can, composting food waste, harvesting rain water and using solar energy. We cook with gas where possible, we never use plastic bags, plastic plates or disposable cups and handle all our rubbish responsibly.
We take care of our staff and pay them a decent wage. They stay with us – in fact many have worked with us since 1996. We improve the lives of Zanzibaris through our programme of Social Corporate Responsibility. We care about being honest with our guests.
Zanzibar is actually called Unguja one of 2 islands in the Zanzibar archipelago.
Showcasing the best Zanzibar has to offer – stunning scenery, clear waters, delicious food and unrivalled Swahili hospitality.
Trust us – we are legitimate and we put our clients first, take care of our crew and make a meaningful contribution to Zanzibar.
Laid back or lively – you set the pace.
Our aim is to give every single guest on board an unforgettable and magical day.
We go to a lot of trouble to keep our dhows looking beautiful.
Skillfully constructed from African mahogany and finished to the very highest standards of Zanzibari craftsmanship.

We love traditional Zanzibar food and taking a recipe and adding a twist of our own. Our peanut kashata is just one example of this. Adding delicious Zanzibar spices like cinnamon and cardamom makes our version of kashata even more delicious. Need the recipe? Send a photo of you wearing our wristband and we will be happy to share the secret recipe! Info@safariblue.net
