• familytravels1 0 contributions 5.0 of 5 bubbles Tour of Stone Town. We were met promptly at the meet up spot. Provided history and details along the tour. We chose a private tour as we prefer to tour without a large group. Our guide was aware of the affect of the heat and humidity. He chose shady spots to explain details on route. Stopped part way for a water break if we needed. He also provided a toilet stop along the way. The tour included our entrance to the slave market museum. We were able to tour at our pace. We were returned to our meet up place. We chose to tour the Freddie Mercury museum on our own after the tour. Tour was just shy of 2 hours. We feel the tour was good value. Guide was knowledgeable. Thank you for a great introduction to Stone Town and some history. Read more Written February 24, 2024
• 690tinek 0 contributions 4.0 of 5 bubbles A cultural exchange rather than a tourist tour! We throughly enjoyed the historical tour around Stone Town with our guide. He was knowledgeable and well-spoken, and he seemed to enjoy our exhanges and conversations as much as we did. We learned a lot about today's Zanxibar/Unguja - and the troubled past. I admire the Zanzibareans' resilience. The spice tour was fine. We enjoyed the drive there and the boys showing us around were fun and silly, so we had good laughs. It would be better to show the tourists some REAL farms, rather than these touristy displays of specific spices, bushes and trees. Read more Written February 22, 2024
