I'm visiting Zanzibar next month and would love some recommendation of places to visit / experiences to get involved with that create a positive impact!
This article recommends to visit a wildlife sanctuary called “Cheetah’s Rock” which promotes petting of cheetahs and other wild animals. In my view, this is not “eco friendly” so I’d be cautious about that particular advice.

Since sustainable in regards to Zanzibar, definetly means to include the local people, I have two ideas. The problem is, that a huge amount of the profit from tourism benefits Tanzanian mainland or Western companys as its the case with so many poorer countries.
Hello, When visiting Zanzibar you can visit Stone town, Prison Island, Nakupenda Sandbank. But also you can embark in experiences like spice farm tour, Dolphin tour, Sunset dhow cruise and Safari Blue Adventure

This I really loved, because it supports a group of women directly and for too many people tourism is the only way to earn their living on Zanzibar.

This tour operator does a fairly good job. Not all tours are really ecofriendly in my opinion so choose accordingly :-D
