About us
Amyn comes from the Arabic أمين — trustworthy, honest, safe, dependable. It is the word people here use for someone you can leave your plans with. We chose it because it is the standard we hold ourselves to.
AMYN is a Zanzibar-based tourism company creating memorable, authentic and trustworthy travel experiences. We are a small team of local guides, drivers and boat crews who grew up on this coast and know it honestly — the good beaches and the crowded ones, the right tide and the wrong one.
To make travel easier, safer, more enjoyable and more meaningful. That means clear prices, realistic descriptions, careful planning and a person who answers when you write.
To become the travel companion people recommend when a friend says they are going to Zanzibar or Tanzania — not because we are the biggest, but because we are the ones they trusted.
Six things we commit to on every single booking.
Every itinerary is organised carefully and confirmed with you before you travel.
Our guides were born and raised here. You see Zanzibar through people who know it.
Your quote lists every inclusion and exclusion before you confirm — no surprises on the day.
Private, group, family or honeymoon — we shape the day around who is travelling.
Reach a real person on WhatsApp before, during and after your trip.
Beyond the usual sightseeing: the reefs, forests, markets and plains people remember.
