    I would be happy to guide you through this cultural city and show you everything that the stone city has to offer. The Old Town is the historical center of Zanzibar City, the capital of the Zanzibar Islands. As a major trading center for spice, silk, and slave trade routes for over a millennium, the Old City has been a unique meeting place, blending African, Indian, Arab, and European cultures. It is one of the few ancient cities left in Africa. Its beauty and historical value have made it a good place on the UNESCO world heritage list. Not only is this city beautiful to the eyes, with old colonial buildings and doors carved with Zanzibari beauty, but your senses will be overwhelmed by the smell of the sea and perfumes and the calls to prayer from the minarets.

Ahmad was Fantastic! We used him for just the Stone Town Tour but will definitely use him again for any other tours in the future. He had so much knowledge, stories and used humour wherever possible which is right up our street. Very friendly and very well spoken English which is a good plus.

The walking tour in Stone Town was very good. The tour was informative, and Ahmed was very knowledgeable. He is always on time and patient. We stopped for tea at the secret garden, which was lovely. Had lunch at Lukmaan and went to the markets for some durian. Nothing was difficult and we were never rushed. We had an enjoyable time. We also booked transfers with Ahmed, and a trip to Nakupenda-sand bank as a private trip. It was amazing. We highly recommend Ahmed.
