Private Tour In Zanzibar With Jozani Forest

The major buildings date from the 18th and 19th centuries and include monuments like the Old Fort, built on the site of an earlier Portuguese church; the House of Wonder, a large ceremonial palace built by Sultan Barghash; the Old Dispensary; St. Joseph's Roman Catholic Cathedral; and Christ Church Anglican Cathedral, marking the work of David Livingston in abolishing the slave trade. The Stone Town of Zanzibar is a fine example of the Swahili coastal trading towns of East Africa. It maintains its urban fabric and townscape virtually intact and contains many fine buildings that reflect its unique culture.
