Finally we booked the transport from the airport to the hotel at Nungwi, two day tours (Prison Island + Stone-Town and Jozani Forest), and a 2-day safari in Mikumi.

Upon our (2h delayed) arrival at the airport, he was waiting for us and took us in an air-conditioned van to our hotel in Nungwi, far in the north of the island, about 1.5 hour drive from the airport.
On the way to the hotel he explained us the plan for the coming days.

Yussuf is a great and friendly guide, and arranged everything perfectly. He planned the tours to our schedules. He was always available via WA and all tours started on time.
He is the right person to organize an unforgettable vacation in Zanzibar.
We were lucky to have him as our tour guide during our vacation in Zanzibar.

Here are some personal impressions of our tours:
-- Prison Island - Nice but overcrowded
-- Snorkeling - Book only at low tide
-- Stone Town - Great!
-- Mikumi Safari - Really great if you book incl. domestic flights (2 x 40 minutes), going by car takes too long.
-- Jozani Forest - Yussuf waits in the taxi, you will get a special Jozani tour guide
-- Swimming with turtles (Baraka Natural Aquarium) - Overcrowded and absolutely no recommendation, better save your money.
