Stone Town Safari Guide
UNESCO World Heritage Site — a labyrinth of ancient alleys, carved doors, and Indian Ocean trading history in the heart of Zanzibar.
Top Highlights
Stone Town is a living museum of Indian Ocean trading culture — a maze of narrow alleys lined with ornately carved wooden doors, crumbling merchant houses, former sultan's palaces, and bustling bazaars that have traded in spices, ivory, and textiles for centuries. It's one of the best-preserved Swahili trading towns in East Africa and a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
The Forodhani Gardens night food market is a highlight — dozens of vendors serving grilled seafood, Zanzibar pizza, sugarcane juice, and other local delicacies as the sun sets over the Indian Ocean. Walking tours, spice plantation visits, and boat trips to nearby islands fill the days.
