Zanzibar Group Trips

Private and small-group excursions run by a Stone Town local operator since 2014. Bring your family, friends, colleagues or club — the bigger your group, the less each person pays.

5-Star Rated · TripAdvisor & Google 1,000+ travelers guided Stone Town local operator Since 2014

Blue Green Zanzibar Tours runs guided group tours across Zanzibar for families, groups of friends, corporate teams and large parties — as both private group tours (your own guide and vehicle) and shared small-group tours. As a locally-owned Stone Town operator active since 2014, we run every tour ourselves, with no subcontracting. Per-person prices fall as your group grows — for example, a Jozani Forest & Cave Swimming tour drops from $65 per person for 1–2 people to $45 per person for 15–27 people. Groups of any size, from 4 friends to 30+ colleagues, are booked directly via WhatsApp with a fast, custom quote.

Private group tour or small-group tour?

There are two ways to explore Zanzibar as a group. Both are guided by born-and-raised Zanzibari guides — the difference is who you share the day with.

Private group tours

Your group travels alone with a dedicated guide and private vehicle or boat. The itinerary, pace and pickup times are built around you.

  • Just your family, friends or team — nobody else
  • Custom itinerary and flexible timing
  • Ideal for families with kids, celebrations and corporate groups
  • Best value once you are 4 or more people

Shared small-group tours

Join a small group of other travelers on a set excursion. It is the most affordable way to see Zanzibar's highlights and meet fellow visitors.

  • Lower per-person cost for solo travelers and couples
  • Fixed, popular itineraries (Safari Blue, Jozani, Stone Town)
  • Small, friendly group sizes with a local guide
  • Great for meeting people on a solo or budget trip

Group tour FAQs

Zanzibar group tours: frequently asked questions

Do you offer group discounts for Zanzibar tours?

Yes. Every tour is priced per person, and the per-person rate drops as your group grows. For example, our Jozani Forest & Cave Swimming tour is $65 per person for 1–2 people, $55 for 3–6, $50 for 7–14, and $45 for 15–27 people. The exact rates vary by tour, but the principle is the same across all of them: the larger your group, the less each person pays.

What is the minimum group size for a discount?

Group discounts typically begin at 3 or more people, with further price drops at 7+ and 15+. There is no strict minimum to book a private tour — even a couple or a family of four can have their own guide and vehicle — but the best per-person value kicks in once you are around four or more travelers.

Can you arrange a tour for a large group of 15, 20 or 30+ people?

Absolutely. We regularly handle large groups using multiple vehicles or boats, synchronised pickups and a lead coordinator so everyone stays together. For groups of 28 or more, message us on WhatsApp with your numbers and dates and we will send a tailored quote with our best per-person rates.

What's the difference between a private and a shared group tour?

A private group tour is just your party — your own guide, your own vehicle or boat, and an itinerary and pace built around you. A shared small-group tour joins you with other travelers on a set excursion, which lowers the cost per person and is a great way to meet people. Both are led by local Zanzibari guides.

Are group tours suitable for families with children?

Yes. Many of our tours are ideal for families — Jozani Forest's red colobus monkeys, gentle snorkeling and turtle swims, and relaxed beach time all work well for children. As a private family group you control the pace and timing, and we adapt the day to suit younger travelers.

Can you build a custom itinerary for our group?

Yes. Tell us your group's interests, ages, travel dates and budget, and we design a custom itinerary from our 30+ tours and multi-day packages. Nothing is cookie-cutter — the plan is built around what your group actually wants to do.

How do we book and pay for a group tour?

Booking is done directly via WhatsApp, email or our inquiry form — no call centre and no middleman. We confirm quickly and accept credit cards (Visa, MasterCard, American Express), bank transfers and cash. You can book from anywhere in the world before you arrive in Zanzibar.

Is hotel pickup included for groups?

Hotel pickup and drop-off is available for a small additional fee that depends on your hotel's distance from the tour. Because prices are per person and transfers vary by location, we include the transfer cost in your custom group quote so there are no surprises.
