Explore the vibrant culture of Zanzibar with a local community. Learn about the traditional crafts of the women such as sewing and discover the importance of palm/strips leaves to the local community.
This tour begins with a guided visit to a local women’s handicraft center in Nungwi Village, where you will observe skilled women hand-sewing beautiful bags, mats, and other traditional items using natural materials such as palm leaves, known locally as "ukili". These crafts reflect centuries of heritage and creativity passed down through generations.
Next, you will explore the village to see how locals create fishing tools, carve wooden artworks, and practice traditional pottery-making techniques. These activities are part of daily life and reflect the deep connection between the people and their environment.
Your experience continues with a visit to the dhow creation site, where craftsmen build and maintain the traditional wooden sailing boats that are essential to Zanzibar’s fishing and trading culture. Watching this process offers an extraordinary glimpse into the island’s maritime history.
Afterward, you will walk through the lively Nungwi fish market, where fresh catches are sold daily, and meet the local vendors. You will also visit village homes built from mud and natural materials, offering insight into traditional Zanzibari architecture and ways of living.
To complete the journey, you will stop by a local primary school or Muslim school known as a madrasa, where children learn not only academic lessons but also cultural and moral values. These visits reveal the importance of education and community in Zanzibari life.
