Three separate places in a day, which works because they sit on the same side of the island.

Prison Island comes first: a twenty-five minute boat crossing from Stone Town, the Aldabra giant tortoises, the island's history and time to snorkel over the reef where starfish are common.

Then the drive to Jozani for the forest walk and the red colobus, and on to a spice farm where the growers show you the plants and what is done with them. Lunch is included.
