Day 31 – Dar Es Salaam to Stone Town

This morning we packed what we needed for Zanzibar and piled in to tuk tuks to take us to the ferry that crosses the Dar Es Salaam harbour. The harbour ferry is an experience in itself, people line up at the gate and push their way out to the ferry the second the gate opens. At the other side of the harbour, we pile into taxis to take us to the Kilimanjaro ferry terminal and wait in the air conditioned office for the ferry to depart. The ferry is also air conditioned.
Arrived in Stone Town around 12 and went for Indian food for lunch. After that we got lost on the streets of Stone Town and went shopping.
For dinner we went to the Stone Town night market. I shared an octopus tentacle with Rianne and Alice and had the best kebab. After that we went for drinks at the Mercury bar, so named after Freddie Mercury who was born on Zanzibar.
