Jozani-bostour

Très belle foret originale de part son sol humide et la flore. Des singes paisible qui n'ont pas peur de vous approcher, une très belle mangrove. Apres avoir été au Parc de Saadani (savane et brousse) une vision très différente de la diversité de la région. Il vaut mieux y aller le plus tôt possible pour éviter la foule qui cacherait un peu le coté paisible de cette foret

C'était la deuxième fois que nous faisions cette sortie. Il y a plusieurs circuits proposés plus ou moins longs .Nous y sommes allées avec le guide DALLAMAN ( WhatsApp : + 255710713436) que nous vous conseillons pour son professionnalisme et sa gentillesse.

The Jozani Forest Tour provided by this operator was not like the description on Trip Advisor. Firstly, the forest tour lasted only 1 hour, not 3 hours like the itinerary describes. Secondly, we were not taken to the butterfly centre like the itinerary describes. Thirdly, we were taken to a small community project with a very small butterfly exhibition and some other forest creatures. We had to pay our own admission fee for this and at the end of the trip the driver tried to take the full amount in cash from us. The tour operator was unwilling to provide a discount or partial refund for the shorter than expected forest tour. After some calls to his office the driver agreed to not double charge us the admission fee to the community project. The driver had no money to provide change so expect to have the exact money. Positives - We saw both types of monkey in the forest The mangrove forest was a very interesting natural phenomenon to learn about The drive from Stone Town was about 1 hour and the vehicle (people carrier) was comfortable The driver was friendly Negatives - The tour operator did not provide the agreed service and still wanted the full amount of money The national park volunteer guide spent half the time on his phone, requested tips at regular intervals and did not provide much in the way of advice Tips - Pick a different tour operator, this one is poorly organised and engages in obvious and poorly concealed scams Make sure the entry fee due on arrival (probably sorted for you by your tour operator/driver is for the length of tour you want)
