    Stone Town

    Stone Town is a world heritage site of which we are proud. Gaining its name from the many houses and buildings constructed from coral rock and mortar, a guided walk along its narrow, winding alleys will reveal a town steeped in romance and history. The oldest part boasts of 16th century architecture townhouses with intricately carved old Arab doors together with many interesting landmarks and vestiges from the past.

    Zanzibar was the hub of spice and slave trade. Explorers such as Dr. David Livingstone used Zanzibar as their gateway for expeditions into the Dark Continent. Settlers from Spain, Portugal, Asia, Germany, China, Persia, Arabia, and Britain have left their mark, easily melting in to form a cosmopolitan blend of culture and tradition.

    Spice Plantation

    A tour of the world renowned Zanzibar spice plantations with a primary objective to give you a complete picture as to why Zanzibar is known as "The Spice Island"

    Spices from Zanzibar are famous around the world, and a holiday to Zanzibar would be incomplete without a visit to the spice plantations.

    Jozani Forest and Butterfly Centre

    Zanzibar's first and only National Park is centred on Jozani Forest, the largest area of mature forest found within Zanzibar, the forest lies in a shallow trough in the fossil coral bed between the mangrove filled bays of Chwaka and Uzi. Seasonal flooding, and a high water table, has given rise to a unique groundwater forest. On the high ground to either side is dry coral rag forest and thicket.

    Perhaps one of the most famous and endearing residents of the Jozani-Chwaka Bay National Park is the Zanzibar Red Colobus monkey. Found only on the main island of Zanzibar, the Zanzibar Red Colobus is recognised as a separate species (Piliocolobus kirkii) and is said to be endemic to Zanzibar.

    A visit to Zanzibar is not complete without seeing one of the rarest monkeys in Africa, with less than 2000 remaining in the world.
