Very interesting tour in Stown Town and an amazing village tour - We did two tours with Rakib: the tour in Stown Town and a village tour in Mtende. We liked them both! Rakib provides a lot of information, answers questions and always has a good mood. :) We especially liked the village tour. It's very interesting to see daily life of locals. Kids in the kindergarden are just amazing! We recommend both tours to explore the island! ☺️

Great private tour with pick up from the hotel - This is a great private tour! Rakib is amazing! He knows so many things and details about stone town. Very friendly and we could let him know where we wanted to sit down or take something to eat or drink. Before the tour, I contacted Rakib via email to also arrange the pick up from our hotel. He sent a driver who was also very friendly. Everything was arranged according to our contact via email. Driver was on time. I will definitely recommend Rakib!

Rakib is awesome! - Great walking tour with Rakib! On the tour, you can tell he grew up around Stone Town. He knows super much and tells many insights about the sights in Stone Town. We felt very comfortable and missed nothing. Admission to the Slave Market is not included. This is also perfectly fine, as it is worth visiting the museum after the tour without a guide in peace.

Good start in Stone Town/Zanzibar - We booked the 3hrs tour in Stone Town - very last minute. Rakib answered right away and was very flexible. Our guide, Nassor, picked us up at the hotel and gave as a great overview over the city and its history. The tour was a good start for our stay in Stone Town and Zanzibar.
