Top tours with Haji that brings you closer to a Zanzibar - We took two beautiful tours with Haji. Once Stonetown and then The Rock, Jozaniforest and Spicefarm. Both tours were well organized. Haji has a great knowledge of Zanzibar. We can highly recommend him. Thanks for everything. Greetings from Gunda and Thomas

Two great experiences - we will be back! - We took Haji on both the Stone Town and Prison Island tours, as well as the Turtle, Dolphin and Snorkel Tours – and each of these experiences was simply unique! Haji impressed us not only with his extensive knowledge of the history and culture of Zanzibar, but also made sure that we felt very safe and well looked after at all times. He knows his way around and has provided us with a lot of interesting information on every tour that has enriched our stay. Particularly noteworthy is how he responded to all our wishes and needs, always patient and friendly. Whether we had questions about the island or the activities, Haji was always by our side and made us feel in good hands. Thank you, Haji, for teaching us so much about Zanzibar and its history and for giving us unforgettable experiences. We will definitely come back and can only warmly recommend you!
