🌍 World Heritage Gem "Where Swahili culture meets Arabian charm!" As the perfect finale to your Tanzanian safari, Stone Town offers cobbled alleys, spice-scented markets, and sunset dhow cruises. 🚗 Getting Around Rental car: $120 for 3 days (no deposit! Just a passport photo). Parking hack: Negotiate fees after returning—they often overcharge. Walking: Best for exploring narrow streets (but brace for pushy vendors). 📸 Photo Ops & Scams Beware: Some shops demand $10 for sidewalk snaps—just walk away! Free spots: Forodhani Gardens (sunset views) Old Fort (rusty cannons + street art) 🛶 Activities & Prices Experience Cost Tips Sunset dhow cruise $20 Book direct at the pier Beach horseback ride $70 Closed Sundays Slave Museum 5,000 TZS Heavy but essential "Sunset jump" ritual 5,000 TZS/3pax Haggle hard! 🛍️ Shopping Coffee beans: $6/250g (buy at Stone Town Café).
