Trip Summary
Most people think that Zanzibar is an island, but it really is an archipelago made up of 4 large islands and several smaller islands. The main island, Unguja, has long been a center of maritime trade. In its capital, Stone Town, where much of the architecture is still well preserved, you can breathe and feel the footprints of the rich and cosmopolitan history of this city, a unique place where East and West converge. Outside the city, the island abounds with endless white sand beaches popular with kite surfers, but also wild, rocky and quiet coves.
Welcome to the island of Unguja, popularly known as Zanzibar. Half-day guided tour where you will see all the historical and cultural attractions of Stone Town while exploring the World Heritage culture and history.
You will learn about the history of the slave trade on the island, visit the local market, and reach the port where the House of Wonders or the Sultan's House is located.

Our Happy Travelers
Monica made traveling through Egypt easy, comfortable, and fun. Not only was Monica able to navigate the country and language with ease, but she also facilitated cultural exchange between me and the people we met along the way.
Monica made our entire trip seamless! Her knowledge of Cairo and the surrounding area, Egyptian culture, and excellent communication throughout the process set the tone for what turned out to be a fantastic experience.
Jay is so friendly and easy to communicate with. She prompted a trip to Bali, took my travel ideas and plans into consideration, as well as offered her recommendations. It was incredible, I would not hesitate to let Jay plan another trip!
Travelling with Daphne is a true pleasure. Her enthusiasm for new cultures is fantastic. She is very easy going, gets along with everyone, has unlimited energy and makes sure you're enjoying your trip the fullest! I would highly recommend!
Jamie provided me with a driver to and from the airport, selected a comfortable and affordable accommodation to my liking (within walking distance from the beach), and planned a nice mix of fun filled activities and down time for rest.
Jamie has a gift of travel. What I found amazing, was her ability to curate an itinerary that balances the must see main attractions with the lesser known but no less amazing attractions of the country.
