(please enquire for exact dates). The Sept session is: 9th - 22nd.
Explore Stone Town, with its maze of alleyways and colorful street vendors. Visit Dhow Shipbuilders, and learn about village life on the Island. Spice plantations and ancient Sultan’s Palaces await you and your camera. A Swahili-speaking guide, who helps you enjoy unique photographic opportunities when meeting Zanzibari people, accompanies you.
