Amazing Tour!! - Myself and my husband were in Stonetown for one night and wanted to see as much as possible in a short space of time. We found Yussuf online and decided... read more to go on his walking tour which we combined with a trip to Prison Island and a transfer service to Nungwi which was very reasonably priced compared to hotel transfers.
Yussuf arrived very promptly on the day and explained exactly what we would do. The tour itself was very detailed with lots of detail explained about the local areas we were taken to and the town itself. Perhaps most poignant was the history about the East African slave trade which if it wasn't for the tour we may have bypassed as it is a little further out of the main centre.
Overall the tour was a fantastic way to see Stonetown, we went through spice markets, winding streets, historical forts and various other locations all of which were explained really well. Our advice is start early, it gets very very hot and humid towards midday!
If you are in Stonetown then do not hesitate to use Yussuf’s services, you won’t regret it!
Thank you Yusuff for the great tour!

We had an excellent day with Yussef, and I do not hesitate to recommend him as your Zanzibar tour guide! He developed a plan based on what he had... read more seen to that point for our last full day in Zanzibar. We had a wonderful, personalized snorkeling experience and saw beautiful fish and starfish like we have never seen before. He contracted with a local fisherman to take us out, and accompanied us on the boat, on the east side of the island. We requested to go to the Rock Restaurant for lunch and he made the reservation, and made sure we had nice seating while there. We continued to the north beaches, and did some walking and swimming there. The driver he chose was also excellent. He is knowledgeable, friendly, has a good sense of humor, and is a graciously host on this beautiful island!
