There is the option to pay cash into an Exim bank, or lastly Mpesa. We have tried to make payments as easy as possible within our restrictions, but unfortunately, you cannot pay online. We cannot accept credit card or PayPal into Tanzanian accounts - pole! After you have paid, we will send you the ticket with the status "PAID" and you are good to go! This will also be needed for your room booking if you are booking with Sunshine. Please don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions.

All the yoga classes and workshops. But also you'll get three vegetarian meals per day, drinking water, coffee/tea throughout the day, plus the one shuttle to and from Stonetown. We might add other things as we get closer, we can be cheeky like that ;)

No worries, we are international friendly - the invoice will show bank details for international transfers. WISE transfers are also possible, although we are not registered with them, so please use provided details instead of searching for us. Of course if there are any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out to us.

Not at all! You are free to attend or not attend anything you would like. We offer the sessions, you decide what to join :)

Nope, only the Dye workshops that has a fee attached to it, so Domi can prepare and bring all the materials. It is best to sign up in advance for this. There may be a cacpacity cap on classes so make sure you arrive on time to the ones you want to attend.

For the yoga classes please bring: your own yoga mat, a reusable water bottle, yoga towel or strap (optional), comfortable and breathable clothing, clothing for dinner if you prefer a change, a swimsuit and any medication you might rely on. We also suggest you bring your (travel) insurance documents and 24/7 emergency number. We will ask for this on arrival. We also suggest to bring books to read in your free-time and a notebook to capture your inner progress. If you wish you're more than welcome to bring some cards or games to socialize with the other people. Lastly, we ask you for one personal item for our mandala, and if you have yoga blocks / bolsters, please let us know if you can bring these along. Please note that we have some amazing vendors, and if you want to make sure they bring what you would like to buy from them, please check out their offerings and reach out to them in advance - this might include a travel mat from Uzima or a face serum from Healing Earth Botanics!

While we welcome everyone, please note that the festival has limited space and is generally not kid-friendly unless your child already practices yoga. In such cases, we will make an exception. Please contact the organisers on info@zanzibaryogafestival.com to check on kids' tickets. With regards to partners, we believe couples who yoga, together stay together ;) However, due to limited rooms and the desire to create a space conducive with personal reflection, relaxation and growth, we ask that everyone staying in the venue hotel, Sunshine Bay, has a ticket - tickets also cover the daily meals. A ticket is also a requirement from the hotel to be eligible to the discounted rate. We suggest your partner either buys a ticket and joins some sessions. Or that you stay in the sister hotel Sunshine Marine, which is very close by, the same standard and has a frequent and free shuttle in between the two hotels. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions.

No worries, we are excited to (hopefully) introduce you to new practices. Every teacher is highly qualified and skilled, and every class caters for every level (unless otherwise noted). That way, we hope to provide something for everyone. You can also read more about each of the styles of yoga and non-yoga classes here and the workshops here, so you can decide whether you might be feeling adventurous and try something new.   Please don't hesitate to reach out to us, should you still have questions.

Zanzibar is a largely muslim and conservative place, so please be considerate when moving around the island. Within the venue, we recommend you wear something you are comfortable in. Other than that, we have no dress code.

Please don't worry, we are open to every-body, whatever your age, ability or knowledge about the practice. There might be some advanced classes, but these will be clearly marked as such, to avoid any confusion. If you are unsure, please reach out to us, we can help you decide. We will also provide non-yoga classes to keep it fun.
