Loved it!

John was very sweet!! He showed us around the whole city centre and through the different markets of the city which we would have missed if we didnt do this tour. It seems like he knows all the locals and told us so much about the tanzanian culture. Thank you again John!

Amazing Moshi Kilimanjaro Experience

Moshi is a nice active town where you can get the good opportunity of explore daily life of Tanzanian people as well as the hidden histories. This experience becomes more informational and attractive when you meet John the local guide in Moshi who will share this experience with you like a close friend and get good understanding of the place. I recommend this activity to everyone before leave the town

A fascinating walk through bustling Moshi Town

The best way to learn about a place is to get out and rub shoulders with the locals. My guide, John, certainly gave me a chance to see Moshi up close and personal. Maybe not for the faint of heart since you are regularly dodging tuktuks and motorscooters, but you will be fascinated by the teeming lively streets and markets in Moshi. I even had a chance to eat boiled cassava with the locals at a roadside stand. I am very happy that I booked this tour

Fun exploration of Moshi

John gave us a nice tour of Moshi. He took us to different markets and explained each time. We also visited the station and a souvenir shop. The communication in advance went very smoothly via whatsapp and the pick up was on time. Recommended!

Walking tour of Moshi

Johnny was kind enough to pick us up from our hotel as we were outside of Moshi. It was our first day in Tanzania, and I honestly could not have navigated the city without him. He took us to the local markets and educated us about the culture and the food we even got to see Kilimanjaro. We tried jackfruit and ground nuts. We had a great experience and highly recommend it.

Wonderful experience

Walking through a typical Tanzanian town with guide John and his cousin. Both friendly and speaking english very well. Without these guides we would not have had the inside information. Because of them we better understand the culture. Thanks guys
