Er is niemand op komen dagen. Wij hebben een andere aanbieder van het hotel gepakt om toch naar Stone Town te gaan. Aanbieder reageert niet op berichten. Na contact met Viator nog steeds geen reactie of refund van de aanbieder.

I really enjoyed this tour and the tour guide. I learned so much about Zanzibar and was shocked to learn of the Ottoman rule over this part of Tanzania. This tour, while excellent, reminded me of the danger of religion and self-righteousness of religious zealots. Just live and let people live their own lives, but I digress...Take the tour. You won't be disappointed.
