Travellers on Zanzibar

It was my first time visiting Zanzibar and to go with Tribe X was just amazing. From the accommodation to the people on the trip it was a beautiful experience. The perfect balance of an organized retreat and independent travel, there were plenty of activities to do, but if you wanted to relax that was also on the agenda. I loved it
Jo Farrer · Zanzibar 2022
I saw TribeX on instagram and decided to join Zanzibar retreat and yes it turned out one of the most awakening experiences of my life! Imagine a week that everything is planned for you, you don't have to worry what to do, where to see, where to eat and also having your own time as much as you want. Can't wait to be part of a retreat again
Irem · Zanzibar 2022
It was so nice not to worry about what activities to plan, what to eat and how to fill my day. Not only did I arrive at a new, amazing destination, the accommodation was beautiful, the people were kind and welcoming, & the food was outstanding. This was truly special. 5 stars!
Kim Maiolo · Zanzibar
My experience in Zanzibar gave me the opportunity to re connect with myself, with others & most importantly disconnect. From sunrise to sunset to dancing in the night, from yoga to kite surfing, the program is taken care of by the team. Having been on many of these programs before, this one was special.

Good to know

Do I have to be really fit or a yogi to join?Open

No, absolutely not. Whether you love yoga, surfing, meditation, boot-camp or just want a week away to relax, one of our retreats can work for you. Our retreats flow with the energy of the group and the location. There are lots of activities on offer daily, but nothing is mandatory. Guests range from beginner to fitness fanatic. As long as you are open to trying new things and meeting new people, you will fit right in with the Tribe.

What is a day like?Open

For most retreats we start the day with meditation and/or yoga or a workout, then head out to surf, hike, snorkel or do other activities after breakfast. All classes are timed according to the tide schedule and the weather. Lunch is around mid-day, and there is a yoga class, meditation or other activity in the evening before dinner. After dinner, some go out, some stay and relax, and some sleep.

Can I come alone?Open

Yes, we encourage it. You can book a room on your own and we will match you with one other person in the luxury accommodation, or you can book the room to yourself. About half of our guests come alone. The rest come with family members, friends and partners.
