Zipline over Masingini forest

About a kilometre on a wire over the treetops, twenty minutes from Stone Town. In the hills east of Stone Town, the Masingini forest reserve has what operators sell as Zanzibar's longest zipline — a single line of about a kilometre over the canopy. You walk back up through the forest with a guide, sometimes past red colobus monkeys. It's sold by tour companies rather than direct, often with transfers and other stops; we couldn't confirm who owns and runs the line itself. How to book: Book through a tour company (several sell it on GetYourGuide, Viator and Expedia), usually with hotel transfer; the meeting point is the Masingini forest office. Some listings charge the zipline fee separately on site.
