Zanzibar - Unguja Island Stone Town - daily departures at 0800 hours |
|
|
Tour Overview
|
|
|
The three and a half-hour tour begins with a visit to Zanzibar's colorful market, alive with the buzz of locals bartering fresh vegetables, and baskets full of tropical fruit, among the heady smell of herbs and spices. Having sampled some wild passion fruit, red bananas and Jackfruit (amongst many other exotic fruits), the tour continues on to the site of the Anglican cathedral, its foundations built on the very spot where slaves were once sold and traded, before the abolishment of slavery (by decree of the Sultan of Zanzibar) in 1873. Signifying an important time in Zanzibar, the cathedral's high alters stands on the exact site of the whipping post in the slave market. Afterwards, visit Zanzibar Museum where David Livingstone's first impression of the island can be read through his written journals and potent letter back home. From there, visit Tippu Tip House, Africa House (the former British Club), the Old Fort, Peoples Garden, House of Wonders and the old Khoja Shia Itnashari Dispensary, full of intrigue from years gone by. The tour ends on a high note with a stroll through the narrow, winding streets of Old Stone Town. |

Jozani Forest National Park - daily departures at 0830 hours |
|
|
Tour Overview
|
|
|
Visit Zanzibar's first and only national park is centered 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. With mangrove forests and salt marshes to the north of the National park, the area is an extremely rich mosaic of Zanzibar's diverse natural habitats, a haven for wildlife including rare, endemic and endangered species. |
