Touring Zanzibar

We have spent 5 days in Zanzibar, and 3 of them with Hassan, touring the island; Stone Town, Nakupenda, Safari Blue. Prison Island, etc. All very well organized. Hassan has helped us in everything and has cared with every detail to make our stay perfect. A wonderful island and an exceptional guide.

A very interesting tour of Stone Town and its streets, between historic and local.

A very young and cheerful boy. We had fun with him at the same time as we walked the streets of Stone Town. 3 hours of cultural and local tours through its streets. He speaks English very easy to understand.
