Responsible Dolphin Watching & Jozani Forest Tour

Overview

This south Zanzibar nature day combines responsible dolphin watching from a boat near Kizimkazi with a guided forest walk in the Jozani-Chwaka Bay area. Dolphins and red colobus monkeys are wild, so sightings are never guaranteed. The boat team must avoid chasing, crowding, touching or feeding dolphins, and no swim-with-dolphins promise is made. The route may be changed when sea, weather, wildlife welfare or attraction conditions require it.

Before you book

Pickup

Early pickup can be arranged across Zanzibar. The final price depends on hotel area, boat arrangement, group size and confirmed attraction fees.

Start time

An early-morning departure is normally recommended. The exact time depends on hotel location, sea conditions, boat schedule and attraction opening times.

Private / shared

The displayed launch price is for a private arrangement based on the confirmed minimum group and pickup zone. A shared departure is offered only when a suitable group, supplier and schedule are confirmed in writing.

Guide language

Live tour guidance and booking communication are provided in English. Another guide language is available only when Kofia confirms it in writing before payment.

Children

Children are welcome when the activity is suitable. Send every child age before confirmation. Child price, vehicle seat, life-jacket, swimming ability and attraction requirements are confirmed in writing before payment.

Cancellation

A booking request can be cancelled without charge before written confirmation and payment. After confirmation, cancellation is free until 48 hours before the start, less any supplier cost disclosed as non-refundable before payment. Cancellation 24 to 48 hours before start is charged 50%; within 24 hours or no-show is non-refundable. Date changes depend on availability.

Weather

The boat section operates only when sea and weather conditions are safe. Kofia may delay, reroute, replace, reschedule or cancel an unsafe section. Wildlife sightings are natural and cannot be guaranteed.

Payment

After availability and the final price are confirmed in writing, Kofia sends the approved payment method and any required deposit. The confirmation states the currency, amount paid, remaining balance and due date. Never pay an account or link that Kofia has not confirmed.

Confirmation

Kofia normally replies within 2 hours between 07:00 and 22:00 East Africa Time. Late-night requests are handled the next morning. The experience is confirmed only after written confirmation and any required payment.
