EXCELLENT Based on 307 reviews Posted on Tripadvisor Larissa PVerified Perfect day in Mnemba Island Amazing experience. Service was great, and the food was the best we ate in Africa. Best day ever!Posted on Tripadvisor Allison SVerified Mnembe island I would have liked to do more snorkelling .Posted on Tripadvisor Clemente IVerified Esperienza straordinaria!! Esperienza unica nel suo genere: imbarcazione tipica Swahili con tutte le comodità. Pranzo ottimo e personale preparatissimo. Isola di Mnemba spettacolare e buon snorkeling. Consiglio vivamente.Posted on Tripadvisor Patrick PVerified A day to remember! We went on a private day trip on a dhow. We booked through Penguin Travel, who in turn engaged Dream Dohw. It was just my partner and me, with a huge boat and a fantastic crew—we were truly spoiled. The weather was perfect: sunshine and just the right amount of waves. We traveled under both motor and sail, visited Mnemba Island and the sandbanks, and enjoyed some diving and sunbathing. There was a chef on board who grilled our lunch, and snacks, coffee, and fruit were served. We wrapped up the day by watching the sunset at sea. In short, everything was superbly organized, and Dream Dohw gets top marks. The day couldn't have been better—a memory we’ll cherish for a lifetimePosted on Tripadvisor fatima aVerified Fun Way to Experience Zanzibar Such a fun experience! I went as a solo traveler and I truly recommend it, if you’re debating whether you should do it or not go ahead and just book it. We started the day by sailing to nemba island, we stopped by the sand banks, took pictures and had lunch, did some snorkeling and finally sailed back to our starting point. HUGEEE shoutout to Sam, Manuel, and Musa! I can’t swim but Manuel offered to help teach me how to swim and kept encouraging me to try. Everyone was very patient, kind, helpful, and considerate. this was honestly one of the best parts of my trip to zanzibar! The boat is also very cute so bonus points for that!Posted on Tripadvisor Maxwell SVerified Merci beaucoup ! Great experience ! Thank you to Sam, Abou and Moussa for the trip ! Great food too !Posted on Tripadvisor Enda12345Verified Excellent boat trip with a lovely crew and delicious food We had a lovely trip with a very nice crew led by Mani, a great Captain and lovely Chef who made a delicious lunch. We enjoyed the snorkelling and the boat. Pity we didn't have the wind to sail back with but that's Mother Nature. Most of all enjoyed the lovely crew who were very friendly and engaging. Thanks a lot!Posted on Tripadvisor Chantal VVerified Private Dhow Excursion to Mnemba Island An amazing experience! Couldn’t ask for more.Posted on Tripadvisor Mårten DVerified Bästa dagen på Zanzibar Fantastsk upplevelse och trevliga männsiskor som skötte båtenPosted on Tripadvisor monalisaVerified Wonderful Sunset Trip We booked a sunset cruise and had a wonderful experience from start to finish. The crew on board was incredibly friendly and made sure we had a truly enjoyable evening out at sea. The boat itself was very spacious, which we really appreciated. What stood out most to us was the variety of comfortable lounging areas—everything was thoughtfully arranged so you could relax and fully enjoy the atmosphere. There were also delicious snacks, including fresh fruit, as well as plenty of drinks available. The music on board was perfectly chosen and added to the overall vibe of the evening. A nice bonus was the small restroom on the boat, which made the experience even more comfortable—you can easily enjoy a few extra glasses of sparkling wine without any worries. 😉 Overall, it was a fantastic experience that we would definitely recommend!
