Pass by

House of wonder
Pass by
The House of Wonders was constructed in 1883 by Barghash bin Said, the second Sultan of Zanzibar, as a ceremonial palace. Barghash made the door extra wide so he could enter the house on the back of an elephant, and the building’s large pillars and two-story clock tower were covered in white paint. From the get-go, the house was adorned with electricity and a working elevator, the first in all of East Africa to do so.
Prison Island - Changuu Private Island
3h · Admission ticket included
Imagine stepping onto an island that’s flipped the script—once built as a prison to keep people in, it’s now a peaceful sanctuary where the locals are massive Aldabra tortoises. You’ll get to hang out with these gentle giants, some of whom have been roaming around for over a hundred years, and honestly, they’re pretty great at posing for photos. Between shell-rubbing and snacks for the tortoises, you can wander through the old ruins and overgrown paths while hearing the wild backstories of the place from guides who really know their stuff. Since you’re surrounded by that signature Zanzibar blue, it’s worth grabbing a mask to see what’s happening underwater or just finding a quiet spot on the shore to soak up the stillness. It’s a strange, beautiful mix of heavy history and total relaxation that you won't find anywhere else
