Yussuf did not disappoint! Yussuf arranged for an early morning pickup at the airport. He was very patient while we checked into the hotel.

We were undecided about what we wanted to do on the second day but Yussuf was very flexible and arranged a trip to Prison Island and Nakupenda Sand Bank on very short notice. On the third day we wanted a free day to shop for souvenirs and go to a late lunch at The Rock restaurant.

Ramadan, the driver, was also very knowledgeable, pointing out interesting things along the way. Yussuf checked in with us to make sure all was going well.
