PRISON ISLAND AND STONE TOWN TOUR

Changuu Island, also known as Prison Island, is approximately 30 minutes by boat from Stone Town. Our guided tour explores the island's history and around including the huge tortoises that walk around. The island was once owned by an Arab and was intended to be used for the incarceration of recalcitrant slaves, but no prisoners were ever imprisoned; instead, the island became a quarantine camp during yellow fever epidemics.General Lloyd Mathews purchased it, and the jail that still remains in the present was established in 1893, earning the name "Prison Island". The enormous tortoises of the Aldabra might also be found on the island

STONE TOWN TOUR

The Stone Town is the main city in Zanzibar. It is a city of great historical and artistic significance in East Africa. Its architecture, which dates mostly from the 19th century, shows the numerous influences which form Swahili culture, creating a distinct blend of Arab, Persian, Indian, and European elements. As due to this, the town was recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2000. In addition, is this city architecturally breathtaking, with its old colonial buildings and intricately carved Zanzibari doorways. However, this tour incorporates visits to all of Stone Town's highlights, such as Darajani Town Market, Zanzibar's major bazaar, the former Slave Market, and the Freddie Mercury House. And you will learn much more about the story of Zanzibar
