Itinéraire
Cette visite vous donnera un excellent moyen de vous familiariser avec la géographie, l’histoire, l’architecture et la culture de Stone Town. Cette excursion fascinante vous emmène à travers un dédale de rues étroites abritant plus de 2000 bâtiments en calcaire, couvrant une superficie de 50 hectares et comptant une population de 18 000 habitants en banlieue. Avec ses éléments africains, arabes, indiens, perses et européens définis et se chevauchant, il a été désigné site du patrimoine mondial de l'UNESCO en 2000. Zanzibar et Stone Town sont vraiment cosmopolites. Après une visite à la cathédrale anglicane (ancien marché aux esclaves), à la House of Wonders (musée national), au musée du Palais, au Vieux Fort, au marché Darajani, aux thermes Hamamni, à la cathédrale catholique, à la maison Freddy Mercury et à la frénésie des rues, le bazar plein de buveurs de café et les belles portes de Zanzibar, vous témoignerez vous aussi que Stone Town est un carrefour culturel et qu'elle est digne de son titre de patrimoine mondial. Prenez également le temps d'explorer les marchés où les populations locales achètent leurs besoins quotidiens et une rue commerçante pleine de textiles colorés.

Ils partageront des histoires amusantes, mais aussi cruelles, sur la vie et la culture des temps anciens à Stone Town, puis vous déposeront en toute sécurité là où votre visite a commencé / où vous avez été rencontré.

We had our tour with Imran. He was very knowledgeable, fun and was always ready to answer our every question. We booked the tour expecting it would take us two hours, but Imran made sure he was available for even longer than that, and did not rush us at any point, allowing us to take it at a chill pace and sharing so many interesting details about the history of the island, politics, religion and life in Zanzibar in general. We had a great time and were very happy with his flexibility and willingness to share as much as he could with us. Would recommend to anyone interested in learning more about Zanzibar!
The tour was wonderful and exaxtly what we were looking for with a froup ranging in age from six to seventy! A very large thank-you to Imran for his excellent guiding abilities and his patience with our very active six-year old! He was exactly the tour guide we wanted and needed. We learned so much about the people, history and culture. He worked with our pace and let us stop as needed. It was a great experience and we fully recommend it to everyone. Also, ask for Imran- you wont be disappointed!
Mohammad led us on an informative and interesting tour of Stone Town. Highlights included the former slave market, the many doors of Zanzibar, and the fish market (hold your nose!) Our guide was knowledgeable and amiable.
Exceptional tour! Super knowledgeable, charming and friendly guide (Imran - 5 stars!!!). A fascinating journey through Stone Town and the culture and history of Zanzibar. A must do for anyone on the island!
Mohammed Omar was our tour guide ! Such a fantastic joy and wealth of information - so patient and understanding of our limitations (being two older ladies) he was so calm showed us all the highlights and was so gracious in taking it at our pace (spending so much longer than what was booked and expected) - Mohammed we totally appreciate and recommend you. Thankyou Wendy and Adee 28/02/26 @11.00am
Excellent knowledge imparted. Enjoyed interaction with Mohamed.
I had such an enjoyable time on the Stone Town . Brother Muhammad was my Tour guide and to say he was knowledgeable would be an understatement. He took his time explaining the history of Stone Town as well as the Architecture . I would highly recommend this outfit 😎👍🏾.
My wife and I booked a private 2 hour tour and it was brilliant - our guide was so knowledgeable and took us round Stone Town showing us all the sights including the local market. Never a dull moment - his English was excellent and he taught us all about the influences through the history of Zanzibar from the Middle East (Oman), Portuguese, British, through to independence. Not only did he give us the history he also taught us about the culture. I would highly recommend this to anyone visiting Stone Town - amazing how much we covered in just 2 hours. THANK YOU! PS - point of note - the tourist information centre is not there so if you stand on the road opposite the old fort in line with the Cape Fish Restaurant they will find you. The tour guides wear red polo shirts 👍🏻
Imran was an excellent guide, very knowledgeable and articulate about the history, culture and daily life in Stone Town. Highly recommend this tour, it was the perfect introduction to the city.
The tour took place with a guide who had learned French via the internet and who improvised himself somewhat guide in Stone Town. With the exception of the museum dedicated to the slave period, the explanations about the neighborhoods and doors were basic and the remarks redundant. This is not really what you would expect from a guide, moreover we did not enjoy going through a store (which we already knew), either saying to take the fee.
