An Incredible Look at Life in Arusha - This was such an insightful and incredible tour! I was looking to experience the authentic life in Arusha, beyond the typical tourist activities in the area, and this tour delivered exactly that! It was so informative and authentic, and it allowed me to step into places where no tourists typically go and learn so much about life in the community. I highly recommend booking this if you want to connect with locals and gain a deeper understanding of the real Arusha.

Terrific and educational experience - The walking tour is a fascinating look at off-the-beaten-track Arusha, beyond the tourist areas, with pleasant, knowledgeable and informative guides. It was one of the highlights of our two-week trip to Tanzania.

Arusha Up Close - My street food tour was excellent. It gave me an inside look at places and people the average tourist will probably not encounter. Jackson was a thoughtful and knowledgeable guide and took me to neighborhoods and streets that revealed the beauty as well as some of the challenges the locals face. He took me through areas where local farming was taking place and explained how it works for the local people and how they benefit. I was also treated to some street food that I enjoyed. But most of all the tour made me feel I got an up close experience of the city. Thank you Jackson.

Impressive experience - This tour is a great opportunity to discover Arusha and its neighbourhoods besides the touristic areas. The guides were very knowledgeable and showed us around in areas that we would not have visited on our own. Nevertheless, we felt safe and welcomed by everyone all of the time and enjoyed the food served. For us it was an impressive possibility to learn about food, culture and everyday life of the local people. Also we appreciated that the guides arranged our transfer back to the hotel.

Discover a local community with locals! - Jackson and Given were great at showing me around the neighborhood, they shared lots of interesting information and were very helpful and friendly. I enjoyed the foodie treats along our walk and am grateful to them for showing me a side of Arusha that I wouldn’t have ventured on my own. They kindly helped me organize a taxi and waited for me whilst I did some last minute shopping at the market.
