The Zanzibar horse club started in 2018 with 3 beautiful rescue ponies of Arabian/Somali mix called Lu Lu, Crumble and Bob. All 3 of the ponies spent 6 months training, eating and relaxing before welcoming guests. Since then, the horses have proven to be popular with guests, settled in and become a central part of the Zanzibar horse club family.
Since then, we’ve gone from strength to strength and now have a total of 40 horses and 16 staff. We are currently located at 3 stables in Nungwi, Kendwa and our main 10-acre facility in Kidoti village.
This is where we do all our training, breeding and this is where the horses come to rest. We have a wide range of horses for all ages, all sizes and capabilities.
