Gifts & Souvenirs In Zanzibar City
The island's capital, combining the historic Stone Town quarter with the wider modern city of Ng'ambo.
Zanzibar City is the administrative and commercial centre of Unguja, and the point most visitors arrive at and depart from. Markets here serve residents as much as travellers, which is why prices and packaging differ from tourist-facing shops.
If you are ordering gifts to be sent home rather than carried, you do not need to shop in person at all — a made-to-order box can be prepared and shipped directly, which avoids packing spices in hand luggage.
ZAWADI does not operate a physical shop in Zanzibar City. Our gifts are prepared to order in Zanzibar and either delivered to an address on the island or shipped internationally.
