So interesting, but such a pity so run down.So many treasures so neglected. A surprise to see an Austin Princess in garage, beautiful old car. If they want to do well out of tourist industry they need to smarten the place up,Worth a visit though
Displays and artefacts throwing a light on the once era of the Sultans. Laid back service at the desk. A guide is not required. Be careful at the start of the visit - a guide will tag on...
It is almost collapsing ..lack off maintainance.. If you go alone there s not interesting, but with guide you can know the realhistor of zanzibar, the famous lave trade market..the british and portuguese invasion...etc...
This is what Zanzibar is all about. I kept waiting to hear about the Sultans. This tour was so much fun. Our guide was terrifiic, so knowledgeable and friendly. It was fascinating to hear about the different sultans and their wives, concubines and children. The furniture was authentic, and the older furniture wore better than the newer furniture. It was sorry to see the state of the graveyard, but there was a man watching over them. Well worth a tip to the guide to take in this amazing building.
Fascinating stories of a lost world. They are still using the location for meetings, weddings, dinners and shows. If offered do not miss it.
