Program details

The town dates back to the 12th century when spice traders arrived from Arabia blown across on the Trade Winds. Visit the historic old quarter, dominated by the medieval Fort Jesus built by the Portuguese in the 16th Century, with its ancient mosques and narrow bustling streets, the old dhow harbour, souvenir shops and including a visit to the Akamba wood carvers where you have the opportunity to see the carvers at work and make some purchases. Lunch will be served at Tamarind Restaurant or on the Dhow. Then in the afternoon, visit Dr. Rene Haller's Nature Park (Haller Park), a former quarry now re-forested and transformed into a sanctuary for many animals including giraffes, hippos and giant tortoises.
