The city is a valuable human heritage site and is included in the UNESCO list. Once in the city, it seems that it is seasoned with the East. This is not an erroneous first impression. Stone town is an Arab city. Tourists will be pleasantly surprised — each door is unique, inimitable.

About two thousand years ago, people crossed to the island for the first time and remained alive. The founders of the city are considered to be members of the Bantu tribe.

Stone city is the oldest part of Zanzibar. It is a place of winding streets, round towers, carved wooden doors, towering terraces and beautiful mosques. It was named after its many multi-story stone buildings; these structures are actually constructed of coral and mortar, not stone. This tour gives you the opportunity to visit various areas in the historical Stone city, such as Darajani Bazaar, old slave market, old Fort, wonder House, Palace Museum, Old dispensary, tippu Tippa house, hamamni Persian baths, Freddie Mercury house, Forodhani gardens and other historical buildings.
