Abdullah and Omar gave us a good tour from foradhani gardens to the outsides of the old fort and house of wonders explaining the history of the island and its people, seeing the market and giving us tips on places to eat. We saw the slavery museum fr the outside and had quite a good summary (we visited later), and saw the different styles of architecture and doors and what they meant. Zanzibar coffee house had a nice view - we had a coffee there and luzmann gave good Swahili food.
