We did not have a formal guide for this tour, and there is limited information to read in the baths themselves. You are best to read up beforehand about the site. You can get an idea of the functions inside and the structure is relatively complex. Your guide can get a key from the lady at reception and take you around to the back of the building where you go through a door. There is a very steep staircase up to the roof which shows the complex structure from above and gives a good view over this part of Stone Town.

We walked to the site and there was a women at the entrance of the baths. A student came over and gave us a nice tour. He showed us the different rooms and explained them well (the changing room, waiting room, bathrooms, hot and cool baths, rooftop, and where the fire would be started). It cost $5 each and was worth the visit.
