About

Look for kiuyake store in Zanzibar for local business, a general shop on Tharia St in Zanzibar, Tanzania.

kiuyake store sits within Zanzibar's main urban area, so it is easy to reach from the island's resorts and towns for anyone staying near Stone Town or heading up the coast towards Nungwi, Kendwa, Paje, Jambiani, Bwejuu, Kiwayu or Matemwe. A 5 out of 5 score from 50 reviews places kiuyake store among the higher-rated local businesses on Zanzibar, and that score comes from a steady stream of customers. The listing carries five images of the shop. The shop trades as a general store, serving everyday needs for residents and visitors moving through the area.

Zanzibar was the seat of the Omani sultanate and a dhow-trade hub before uniting with Tanganyika in 1964 to form Tanzania, and that history still shapes the streets around the shop. Kiswahili is the main language of both islands, with English widely used in tourism and Arabic loanwords in everyday speech, so a few words of greeting go a long way. The island has a tropical climate, hot and humid all year with sea breezes along the coast.

The Zanzibar red colobus monkey is found only on Zanzibar, and the Pemba flying fox only on Pemba, so wildlife watching is a reason many travellers cross the water. Reaching the island is straightforward by air or ferry, and once here, distances between the main towns are short enough to cover in a day.
