Excellent Beyond words - We spent 4 days out of our 14 with Yussuf, what a brilliant way to explore the Island, we wanted a local knowledgeable guide and he didn’t disappoint.

Yussuf knew so much Zanzibar’s history and answered our many questions with ease. Yussuf couldn’t do enough for us, always on time and Mukrim was his right hand man, driving us to wherever we wanted. Yussuf helped us to plan our itinerary, making suggestions and recommendations and when we were unable to book the Rock Restaurant online or via telephone, he sorted it out for us, getting us a table at the last minute we were very lucky!
Yussuf’s communication was brilliant, he let us know if traffic was heavy and if he was going to be delayed (only due to a President visit and the Police slowing down traffic for checks).
We enjoyed some excellent trips, Prison Island, a sunset boat trip at Nungwi, a private trip to Prison Island, a private tour of one of the spice farms and an amazing walking guide through Stone Town - what a city to explore, we did a second evening visit and felt safe through every part of the tour. We cannot thank Yussuf and Mukrim enough for their friendship, chilled personalities and patience, their sense of humour was brilliant and not only did we have serious, historic conversations but a lot of laughter too- exactly what we wanted from our personal guides. Highly, highly recommended and we will be sending his details to anyone we know who may be visiting Zanzibar in the future, thank you from Carl and Donna xx
Hakuna Matata!

Fantastic Tour guide - I was looking for a trustworthy tour guide to assist with our day tour in Zanzibar. Fortunately I came across Yussaf and contacted him. He was professional and... read more efficient right from the start. I indicated what I had in mind and he arranged the perfect itinerary, transfers and pick ups for my husband & I. He is punctual, very knowledgeable and absolutely proficient.
I'm so happy that I found what I was looking for, a trustworthy, witty, tour guide who would go the extra mile for his clients.
The perfect guy to show you around in Zanzibar, will most definitely recommend him.
