What you can expect

Begin your adventure with a trip to Prison Island, where giant tortoises have called the island home since 1919. Here, you can relax while snorkelling or sunbathing. The island also has a fascinating history as a former quarantine station before the British constructed the Stone Town prison.

Afterwards, immerse yourself in the rich history of Stone Town, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Discover its iconic landmarks, including the Old Market, House of Wonders, Tippu Tip House, Old Fort, and, if you choose, the Former Slave Market.

Activity itinerary

Prison Island - Changuu Private Island
  • 2h
  • Admission ticket not included
Begin your journey with a visit to Prison Island, just a half-hour from Stone Town. Famous for its giant tortoises, which have been living there since 1919 after being brought from Aldabra Seychelles, the island is also a fantastic spot for snorkelling and sunbathing. Once a quarantine station, it became the site where the British planned to build the Stone Town prison in the 1890s, though the prison was never completed.
Jambo Spice Farm
  • 2h
  • Admission ticket not included
Next, head back to Stone Town for a historical walk through this UNESCO World Heritage site. Explore landmarks like the Old Market, established in 1903, divided into sections for fish, meat, vegetables, fruits, and spices. Visit iconic sites such as the House of Wonders (National Museum), Tippu Tip House, the former English Club (Africa House), and the Old Fort. Stroll through charming alleys adorned with unique doors and wooden balconies, and make stops at the Palace Museum, Old Dispensary, and the Former Slave Market (optional).
