About Us
The Local Zanzibar Specialist
Our Story
Footloose in Zanzibar is a destination management company passionate about creating unforgettable, authentic experiences across the island and the Tanzanian coast.
Owner-operated and deeply local, our team is made up of experienced guides, hospitality experts and passionate conservationists — committed to providing our guests and agent partners with an exceptional and unique experience. We are proud to craft customised itineraries tailored to the unique interests and preferences of each traveller.
We believe responsible and sustainable tourism is key to preserving the natural beauty and wildlife of Zanzibar and Tanzania. That is why we work closely with local communities and conservation organisations to ensure our journeys have a positive impact on the environment and the people who call this coast home.
What Guides Us
Our Principles
Local. Deeply.
Our team lives and works in Zanzibar. We know the tides, the guides, the owners — and the quiet hours when an island reveals itself.
Curated, Not Counted
We partner with a small number of properties and operators we trust completely. Quality over volume, always.
Agents First
Built for travel professionals: transparent rates, fast responses, and a single reliable point of contact on the ground.
Responsible by Design
We work with conservation-minded operators and local communities so our journeys leave more than they take.
The Beginning
Born from a love of the Tanzanian coast and the conviction that Zanzibar deserved a DMC as refined as its travellers.
The Collection
A hand-picked portfolio of boutique hotels, adults-only resorts and bush camps — each vetted in person.
The Journey
Today we serve agents and travellers across the island and beyond, from Stone Town to Saadani.
