This two-hour walking tour is a great way to be introduced to Zanzibar. I was fortunate to have Ferangi (sp) as my tour guide. He provided a historical overview of Zanzibar, explained the architecture, including the beautiful Zanzibar style doors, and took me thorough a fun and interesting tour of the maze of Zanzibar streets and local neighborhood sites. The tour included visiting the East Africa slave trade museum which Ferangi gave me the option on how much time I needed to review the exhibits in museum, and in the church, he provided more information about this sad and dark part of human history. We went to the Souk (open air market) where Ferangi helped me find some tea, visited the beautiful park by the ocean, and visited the Fort, all while hearing about Zanzibar's history and other local information. I highly recommend this tour, and apologies if I misspelled my guides' name.
