The word Safina is the Swahili word for dhow. The wooden dhows have been used for ages in the coastal waters of East Africa to trade throughout the world, mainly when Zanzibar was the commercial centre of East, Central and some parts of sub-Saharan Africa. Safina Tours and Safaris Limited was created solely to cater to the broad interests of deserving clients today, tomorrow and beyond. Our presence bridges the gap for a competent multilingual Destination Management Company (DMC) in Zanzibar. We are a 100% Zanzibari and Tanzanian-owned company. With over 29 years of experience in the industry, we offer a unique experience to our clientele.
Our tourism industry knowledge is among the invaluable assets that will help our business flourish. We are one of the few Zanzibari and Tanzanian-based companies practising sustainable and ethical tourism. We value our esteemed customers and prioritise their safety, comfort and satisfaction.
