      Romantic Island😍❤️
      Did you know that Nakupenda means "I love you"? Find out how this romantic beach.Buck list when you visit Zanzibar White sands, clear waters, amazing beach, and a private island experience. We could sing this song “Hakuna Matata”it has put a smile on me. Tour duration is 7 hours and it includes lunch seafood bbq,but this depends on how you wanna spend time in this romantic island. The best itinerary I can suggest is with the lunch package cause it amazing 🤩.

      My Group visit to Zanzibar
      I absolutely love the Serenity Experience team! Their level of care, detail, charisma and creativity is unmatched in Zanizbar. I’ve used them for previous group trips and I will continue to use them again because of the top notch service and care they provide. Major shoutout to the owner Captain T who not only gives us what we expected but goes above our expectations! My group of 18 had such an amazing time. I highly recommend this company. I’m Attaching pics so you can see some of the awesome experiences they provided for me and my group!! Thank you so much!

      Wonderful experience
      We took a boat tour to a small island and also a guided tour of Stonetown. We had such a good time! The people are really amazing! They hired some musicians, and all together we sang african songs (at least we tried). It was so much fun. If you are on Zanzibar don't hesitate to book with Serenity Experience. You will not regret it. Thank you Captain Tango for such a wonderful day!

      Prison Island and Snorkeling
      Incredible experience! My wife, a few friends and I went to prison island and snorkeling with Serenity, and it was amazing. The best snorkeling I have done yet in Zanzibar, and it was a great price. Highly recommend it to anybody! We will definitely go again.

      Sunset Dhow Cruise
      We took a private sunset dhow cruise with Serenity Experience with my daughter and a group of her friends when visiting Zanzibar this spring. It was absolutely wonderful! Captain Tango and his crew were so organized, the views were beautiful, and the experience of sailing at sunset along the coast in a traditional dhow was exceptional. Lots of laughter and even some music and dancing. We were clearly having more fun than the passengers of the other boats we saw! Highly recommended.

      Amazing day on Nakupenda Island!
      Thanks Tango! We were given the royal treatment. The food was amazing - seafood barbeque. A few of us also went snorkeling - an unforgettable experience. I highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Zanzibar.

      Beware of the owner of this company. Big mouth, poor delivery. To be avoided. Daniel Hartmann (Switzerland)

      100% recommendation
      We did a snorkeling tour, went to the spice farm and walked through the streets of Stone Town all in one day. We didn't want to go to the Sandbank because we wanted to avoid the crowds of tourist so we got a private boat tour to a nice snorkeling spot. The spice farm was super interesting and we even had a German speaking Tour guide. Our walking Tour was with a German speaking guide too. He gave us good information about the history and showed us through basically every street in stone town. The owner, Tango, was very nice to us and gave us a good price for everything. In the evening he even showed us around and went to the musical festival with us. We did everything on our first day in Zanzibar. It was a perfect start to a beautiful holiday that i wont ever forget. I definitely recommend booking all your tours with Tango, you won't regret it.

      Africa With Us Trips
      I have the ultimate recommendation for Serenity Experience lead by CaptainTango and his crew! We at Africa With Us do all of our Stone Town trips and events with them every year we come back to Zanzibar! They take great care of us anywhere from 15 - 20 people! From the boat rides to the different isles and gorgeous beaches, to cooking a delicious meal on the beach for our lunch, to snorkeling and tons of beach activities, we feel so safe and pampered all at the same time! Serenity Experience is a one stop shop for our trips and we keep coming back for more each year as Captain Tango and his crew never cease to amaze us each time! Mama Kuks

      Epic Times with Serenity Experience
      Serenity Experience led me and my group of 18 travelers from the US on an epic adventure in Stone Town. Captain Tango, the tour leader, is just the best. Him and his team have top notch customer service and are so knowledgeable about everything on the island. We explored prisoners island and learned about the history of the land and the people then we had and amazing custom seafood barbecue on the beach with all the seafood we could think of accompanied with fresh cut fruit and awesome side dishes. They even were so thoughtful to accommodate and have great options for my vegetarian travelers as well. We also had a snorkeling adventure in the crystal blue waters followed by dancing, singing, and fun on the serenity boat to and from the beach. I seriously couldn't have asked for a better time. authentic, fun and well organized. Im so grateful to Captain Tango and his stellar team for such an awesome experience for our crew. Without a question I will be utilizing their services again when Im in Stone Town, Zanzibar

      Amazing Experience
      I have taken a number of tours with Serenity Experience and they were all excellent. Captain Tango, the tour manager, is a fantastic guy - friendly, knowledgeable, reliable and lots of fun! The boat seemed safe and well- maintained, customer service was outstanding (which isn’t always the case) and their commitment to the environment and to local charities is a big bonus too!

    We had a private tour of Stone Town where we had the chance to listen to the amazing history of this famed place and ask plenty of questions. Our guide was very knowledgeable, made himself understood easily, and adapted his presentation to our interests. Because we had some much fun exploring the town, we ended up with an almost 4h walking tour instead of the 3h that was planned. Would highly recommend this tour.
