About

Among Zanzibar's local businesses, Livingstone House stands at R6R2+MW7, Zanzibar, Tanzania. The address sits within Zanzibar City, close to the old quarter of Stone Town.

Reaching the venue from the main resorts is practical, since Zanzibar City connects to the island's road network that links it to Nungwi, Kendwa, Paje and Matemwe. The venue operates as a museum, and its identity is tied to the Stone Town area. Zanzibar was the seat of the Omani sultanate and a dhow-trade hub, then united with Tanganyika in 1964 to form Tanzania. Stone Town, the old quarter of Zanzibar City, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site built from coral stone.

Two photographs accompany the listing, and the venue's position near Stone Town places it within walking distance of the waterfront.

Visitors have given Livingstone House a 4.3 out of 5 average across 7 reviews, a record that reflects steady satisfaction among its clientele. Zanzibar and Pemba have 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. With 7 reviews and a 4.3 out of 5 average, it ranks among the area's most reviewed museums.
