Historical stone town tour

This is a wonderful introduction to Zanzibar and gives you a feel for its rich cultural heritage. You get an overview of the historic Stone Town area with its stunning architecture, narrow alleyways, sandy streets, and centuries-old buildings constructed using local stones—some more than two hundred years old, featuring intricately crafted Arabic/Indian doorways. We begin our journey at the central city marketplace that has been operating since 1904, selling exotic fruit, vegetable varieties, aromatic spice blends, and seafood caught off the coastlines around this beautiful Island nation. Next up we visit The Anglican Church Of Christ located near what once served as slave trading grounds; originally established here back in 1873 under guidance provided by Reverend William Edward Steers who played significant role during his tenure there.
