Fantastic guide, local secret places, exciting history, which gave more understanding of the city and culture! - We experienced secret local pearls in Stone Town, had exciting talk and got plenty of knowledge about Zanzibar’s history and culture from a very cute and knowledgeable guide! In addition, prison island was very interesting and it was great to see both the city and the island from the boat!

Zanzibar tour - MTIKA was an incredible guide. So good that we actually ended up hiring him as our guide for the entire ten day stay. He was very knowledgable and shared lots of interesting and fun facts about Zanzibar island. The prison island tour was one of the highlights of the entire trip for me. Would highly recommend him.
