Jozani Forest is the barely reserved National Park of Zanzibar. Its safe home of the rare endemic red monkeys you can only see in Zanzibar. Jozani is a must visit Day Tour in Zanzibar.

Super nice walk, cross the mangrove forest, in hot temperatures, great place to chill.

Forest is nice, there are monkeys. You cant go without a tour guide, and you stay along the main road, or not to very far from it. They provide umbrellas when it rains. You can pay in shillings, USD, or Euros. Across the street you can check out the mangroves where there are wooden planks throughout for you to walk and explore. Its pretty neat. Theres also a butterfly center nearby that will take up a good twenty to half an hour minimum.

There are red monkey 🐒 which are not found around the world but only in Zanzibar 👍

A very beautiful forest in which there are types of monkeys, you can walk in it and see large trees and monkeys and take beautiful pictures

Nice national park with Jozani Forest where mahagony trees grow. It is a home of endemic monkeys (Colobus).There is also a remarkable mangrove forest.

12$ per person, 2 kind of monkeys, and few butterflies and two rare Elefant nose rats! We had a very nice guide, who is a volunteer, and did a 2 h walk with us and gave a lot of information l.

Was nice , but not spectacular

Worth a little walk there! Very surreal little forest!A little guided excursion is included in the price of the Jozani Forest tour! Male your guide take you there!

The forest is not more than ok. Weve walked maybe 5 min in the forest till the local guide ditched us. Then weve looked at some monkeys with a different guide till he called it a day. Definitely not worth the money and the drive.

Nice forest, spectacular tourist-friendly monkeys. 1 hour tour a bit overpriced and a bit short for the trip.

We had an excellent guide, very professional and full of knowledge about biology and ecology. Unfortunately I cannot recall his name.

A nice half day trip if you enjoy walking and being close to nature. The Jozani Forest is stunning to see and we especial enjoyed to watch the monkeys in their natural habitat. The Mangrove forest is definitely unique and worth a visit.The entrance fee of 25k Tzs is a bit high especially because most likely also take a volunteer guide who expects tip at the end of the tour.

You will be guided by a ranger to do the tour of a wooden path into the mangroves. Very quick and definitely not engaging explanations of what youre seeing and whats the importance of the mangroves will follow and... well... thats pretty much it... Ah! You may see some crabs here and there. PS: watch your head

Very beautiful surroundings, our guide was knowledgeable, spoke good English...

Better than Jambiani Forest, and for free ;) We met monkey. Beautiful scenery.

Incredible place! Lots of different kinds of trees and many monkeys jumping all around. Definitely a great place to visit for nature lovers

Nice Ed monkey 🐒

An interesting tour of the mangrove highlighting the natural wonder and its importance

It was great to see the monkeys that leave just in this place in the whole world!

Time filling activity. The monkeys are interesting, but not more. Guides are shaking tourists for tips.

Nice forrest and bush in the heart of Zanzibar. Its really worth to take a longer walk around.

Unique forest, home to Colobus Monkeys .

Worth visit..getting around jozani jungle, taking pic with red monkeys and going around mangroves..beautiful mangroves that one want to spend more time enjoying the environment

It is worth visiting to walk through the real Zanzibar jungle. An additional attraction, apart from the local vegetation, are definitely monkeys that can be seen up close and photographed.

The place is fun and very exciting

Very beautiful place to see

Beautiful and peaceful but the tour is short. Ask for the 2 hour tour.

Amazing nature

Nice forest

Great to see

Boring

Amazing place

Lovely place

Just wow !

Nice place for tours

Red monkeys, forest, mangrove ...

The only national park in Zanzibar. I expected more from that. We just come through the forest, then along the footbridge. Its nice in the heat under the trees. But very stuffy. We had it all in a really few minutes. Even less mobile people can handle it. You will also meet monkeys, which are the only ones in the world.

Monkeys ok, next to the mangrove forest ok. Entrance 12 $. Worth seeing. You can go away on your own, we just take a car.

This forest is very unique. On the one hand, there are: free monkeys that jump through the trees and look at tourists, fiddler crabs that live in the mangrove forest, the mangrove forest itself is also pretty.But on the other hand, midges are constantly flying that bite you. Wear a tracksuit, it can rain tropical rain, but it practically does not reach the ground. And corals. They interfere a lot. Look under your feet, you can fall and run into

Nice experience, Jozani is a stretch of rainforest that is part of the northern Zanzibar-Inhambane mosaic coastal forest although mainly mangroves will be seen here.At the entrance of the national park there are paths that help to penetrate the dense vegetation and to spot the red colobus, a species of endemic monkey at risk of extinction, the great protagonist of the place.

Admission costs approximately $ 10 per person (tip to guide not included).We had a guide to ourselves. He took us around the mangroves and explained the different types of trees to us. Then we went to see the monkeys (very close), first the colobus then the black monkeys. We did not see a chameleon (they are mostly there in the morning and very difficult to see). But the guide had a video for all the animals that we couldnt see and explained to us where to find them.The guided tour does not last very long. And you have to be lucky with your guide. Some are really passionate, others less and try to go as quickly as possible to take other customers (they are volunteers and are paid only by tips apparently).After the tour with your guide, you have the possibility to walk around the whole forest on your own until closing time. We have encountered many species (centipedes, spiders, butterflies, squirrel, elephant shrew, birds, etc.) but you can meet many others (chameleon, snakes, dik-dik, mongoose, etc.)Bring: pants, sneakers, mosquito repellent

So, it is an activity to do yes! But read my review first.Good points :-The magnificent animals, if you are lucky you will see a lot of things.-The price which is not high, even if the ride is very fast.-The mangrove forest is magnificent but must be done at high tide. Really, dont go if its low tide.Negative points :-The idiots of tourists who are desperate to take a photo to feed their instagram of me *** ...... we have seen tourists touching monkeys, breaking branches to make them fall ... respect the nature and animals a bit right?-The speed of the trip.Furthermore I highly recommend this activity.

The walk in the national park was very pleasant, the guide showed two types of monkeys and you could see the mangrove forest. It was a little bit unpleasant to end this forty minute viewing when we were forced to leave a tip.

You can see the colobus around the park, there is a lot of forest nearby.The monkeys ask you to eat, that is, some tourists are spoiling them.

When staying in Zanzibar, this is a place you must visit. Interesting natural phenomena that you will not find anywhere else. Tangle of roots, a walk through exotics.

You can experience the high humidity of the tropical rainforest perfectly, you can see the plants and animals with the help of a kind guide (Aisha) in Hungarian.

Very nice walk to do another activity. The guide was very good in his explanations, in addition to seeing the red colobus monkeys, we also took a walk through the mangrove. Driven there with your own car, very easy to find and parking provided..

So everyone should know and want to know, because they are here to know another region

Cost at the end of February $ 12 per person. Local is cheaper. Duration is approximately 1.5 hours. An English speaking guide will be assigned. First, he will show and tell about the monkeys, then he will guide you through the jungle and tell you what grows and lives there. Then everyone will jump into the transport they got into this park (you can walk on foot, for the most courageous :)), and will drive about 1.5 km to the mangrove forest. There the guide will tell you how the trees grow, where they get water, etc.Overall I recommend.Excursion costs $ 12 (end of February 2021). For locals its cheaper. Continues approx 1.5 hour. You will have guide who will tell you about monkeys and rain forest. For sure photos, photos, photos. After that you will take you car, tady or bus, and it will bring you to mangrove forest, about 1 km. Walking, photos and some information about mangroves. Recommend.

Beautiful mangrove forest. Interesting path / landing on stilts that you can walk and see the forest itself. Interesting photos can be taken in several places.

Great place to walk. Solid fashionable walkways, there is a large gazebo with benches (oh, how nice it is to lie on them in the shade!).There is also a descent to the river. We saw many small fish with long noses in the water.You can get here from Stone Town without a tour, on your own, by minibus. For example, 326, 310 or 309 are suitable. Stop - the village of Jozani, then walk along a dusty dirt road for about 1 km past the turtle park.In Stone Town, 309 and 310 can be found at the bus station on the eastern outskirts of the city, near the stadium. Its far from the center.326 is based near the historic center, on Karume Street, near a long multi-storey building and a market.In February 2021, the fare is about Sh. 2500-3000. This is how lucky. Some locals gave 1500, some 2000.

Calm and freshness in this beautiful dense mahogany forest.$ 12 entry, very reasonable because it is really a visit to zanzibar, we see the red monkeys very closely, they are harmless and not wild at all.The discovery of the mangrove is a real nugget.I recommend this excursion.

We reached this place on our own 🚘 You can take a short excursion with a guide for 60 minutes, or a long one for 3 hours. We took a short one. Again, the cost is too high, they gave 50 thousand Tanzanian shillings⚠ In principle, they did not regret that they took the short one корот. It is more interesting to walk with a guide, shows, talks about living creatures, the nature of this place. He told me interestingly about mangroves леса. By the way, the guide is English-speaking. And, of course, we saw red colobuses. Cool👍. As a result, we had an interesting time✌. A lot of different living creatures rustle around you, you just need to take a closer look🐍

It is worth seeing the unprecedented red Gereza monkeys, rummaging in the last piece of rainforest on the island, plus a walk along the pier among the mangroves that make up the mangrove forest.

I liked it a lot. It is worth visiting and you will see the endemic Red Colobus monkeys of Zanzibar. and the spectacular mangroves

Mangroves, monkeys - a nice and interesting place to see

I highly recommend going with a local guide! You can be sure that you will meet red monkeys and black monkeys, rather unwilling to come close to tourists, but circle around in the trees.

Nice place, but overcrowded.

A very interesting forest to see the monkeys and enjoy nature

The rest of the Jozani park. In the previous monkeys. And stories about plants and what they use.

An amazing all. Idyllic. Its lush and monkeys are everywhere. I cant tell. Its beautiful there

50,000tzs for two. The guide takes us through the forest and introduces us to some plant species. Then we arrive on a path where the monkeys are. We see them first hand. It does not last long. It is to be done but nothing exceptional. Provide sneakers and pants, we walk the tall grass and brambles

The jungle is ennobled, there are paths you can see two types of monkeys. Tanzanian elephant :) just do not take a tour to this park from Anex Tour, the organization sucks, the bus came an hour late, there was not even water in the bus. The excursion itself is normal

A nature reserve, located in the center of the island (Zanzibar Island), contains many rare medicinal and aromatic trees, which have different traditional uses, and it also contains about 2000 Zanzibar monkeys, and this type of monkey does not exist naturally except in Zanzibar.

The park guide we had was fascinating, we saw a lot of monkeys, the forest and the mangrove.

A bit short visiting time for such a nice placeI recommend

Fantastic place. Monkeys in the wild and this vegetation. I recommend it to everyone.

Very interesting place and very educational. Entrance $ 12, the guide accompanies you throughout the territory and tells the history of the park.

A beautiful fairy, worth a visit!

Nice, but maybe Id expect a little more animals

Interesting, but relatively short. The path / jetty was in good shape, I would have found a boat trip more appropriate.

Very interesting and well maintained. It is recommended to look when the tide is - then you can see even more

Jozeni Forest is no more than Mahmoud ... We went an entire forest to see monkeys and in the end we found them all in the garbage can of the restaurant at the entrance..hahahaOn the other hand, the mangrove forest is a charming place, an amazing nature experience combined with a fun walk on a wooden bridge.

Crabs with one claw

Very nice meeting with the monkeys and magnificent mangrove

A place worth visiting.

Expected more, the park seemed very small, a short tour

A walk in the forest in search of red monkeys is quite difficult. The compensation was a walk through the mangrove forest.

Beautiful park with rare and endemic monkeys of the island which are very welcoming and easy to approach. Be responsible and protect nature

Beautiful place worth visiting.

Walk among the water trees on the new footbridge. Definitely worth a visit. Included in the tickets for Jozani Forest

A bit worse than described in guidebooks, but its worth seeing monkeys living in the wild. I recommend being and seeing.

Lots. Provide socks + shoes.

Beautiful nature still preserved

Great tour. 100% Zanzibar

From afar they will show monkeys, walk a little in a crowd through the forest. The mangrove forest is beautiful only.

For ten bucks per person, you can walk in the woods, watch monkeys and walk along mangrove walkways.
