A small but fascinating museum where you can explore the history of tanzanite. A wonderful young man named Francisco gave my husband and me a brief tour. After visiting this place, my husband completely fell in love with tanzanite — and we’re now determined to buy one.

The experience was really nice, we had a small tour from a lovely man named Francis, he explained the background of mining stones and really gave us knowledge about how tanzanite was first found and how the stones can be developed and made into beautiful Jewels. Still loved the tour even though he preferred aquamarine to amethyst 😂🙄 but it was a Lovely experience 10/10

Amazing space to learn about Tanzanite and buy jewelry as well. My guide William was amazing at his explanations and I had a great time here. Definitely recommend if you are in Stonetown Zanzibar looking for activities to do during your walk or you want jewelry to commemorate your trip!

Great experience at the Tanzanite Museum in Zanzibar!
My friend and I were looking for a Tanzanite ring and were warmly welcomed by Miss Amina.
She was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly. A must-visit if you're in Zanzibar and curious about this rare gem!
