Activity itinerary

Take a step back in time with a guided walking tour through Stone Town, the cultural gem of Zanzibar and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Start your journey at the bustling Old Market, operating since 1903, where vibrant stalls burst with fresh fruits, aromatic spices, and the lively buzz of local trade. Feel the essence of Zanzibar’s rich heritage as the famed Spice Island come alive around you. Explore iconic landmarks like the House of Wonders, once the grandest structure in East Africa, and Tippu Tip House, where stories of Zanzibar’s spice and slave trade history unfold. Meander through narrow winding streets adorned with beautifully carved doors, Arab-style balconies, and secret courtyards that showcase Stone Town’s distinctive Swahili architecture. Along the way, visit must-see sites such as the Old Fort, Palace Museum, Old Dispensary, and the solemn Former Slave Market, a powerful reminder of the island’s past. Your tour ends at the Africa House, a former colonial club offering breathtaking ocean views that perfectly capture the spirit of this captivating city.
