WHAT TO SEE & ACTIVITIES
Zanzibar is the main island of the Zanzibar Archipelago and is also known as Unguja. The next larger island is Pemba, just to the north.
Stone Town is the beautiful historic section of the island’s capital of Zanzibar City. It’s also a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
It’s found on the west coast of Zanzibar Island, about 15 minutes north of the Abeid Amani Karume International Airport. Like a lot of historic urban centres along this part of East’s Africa coast, Stone Town is an eclectic blend of cultures.
You’ll see Arabic, Indian, European, and Persian influences, with a foundation of native Swahili. It’s a mystical maze of narrow pathways, coral stone buildings, and artistically carved wooden doors.
Much of this beautiful old architecture, left behind by previous occupants of the island, is found on the waterfront.
