Zanzibar Nakupenda sandbank, prison island and Stonetown tour

Very nice experience

Overall a very good experience. The city tour could be a bit better, with more activities in it. We didn't have the chance to visit the Freddie Mercury museum. It would be nice if the activity combined that as well.
