I had such an amazing experience exploring Stone Town with Lee. He is incredibly knowledgeable, flexible, and truly passionate about his work. From the very beginning, he made the tour enjoyable and easy to follow, sharing fascinating stories about the history, culture, and hidden gems of Zanzibar. What I really appreciated is how professional Lee is, he doesn’t push for commissions or tips, but instead focuses on making sure you get the best experience possible. He even helped me find fair prices and gave great advice throughout the tour. If you’re visiting Zanzibar, I highly recommend booking with Lee. He made my Stone town exploration unforgettable, and I couldn’t have asked for a better guide.
Thank you so much for your kind words and for taking the time to share your experience. I’m truly delighted to hear that you enjoyed exploring Stone Town with me and that you found the stories, history, and hidden gems meaningful. It was a real pleasure guiding you through Zanzibar’s culture and heritage, and I’m glad I could make the experience both enjoyable and memorable. I always aim to provide fair, professional, and personalized service, so it means a lot to know this came across during your tour. I truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you back to Zanzibar again in the future for more adventures. Asante sana and safe travels. Warm regards, Lee

Hamadi was THE best tour guide. He was so knowledgeable about the area, and answered all the questions we had. He was patient and super accommodating. He went above and beyond with my husband and I on our tour and even gave some amazing recommendations for restaurants in the area.
Thank you for your kind words! We're thrilled to hear that you had such a wonderful experience with Hamadi. We strive to provide exceptional service to all our guests, and it's always gratifying to know we've met that goal. Kindest regards Hafidh/Lee
Lee is an experienced freelance certified tour guide. We have done more than this trip with him a d he was always there for us with the right dose of information and all thatvwe wanted to know about Zanzibar. He is very polite and very well educated and he was always at hand whenever we needed him, not just during the trips but even in between. Definitely recommend him if you want a professional Zanzibar local tour guide. - Frederick Attard : Malta 🇲🇹

Lee helped us with everything, from finding a villa to stay in and transport to every details we needed to know about Zanzibar. First He helped us for one weekend safari in Tanzania and it was amazing and the choices of accommodation was just perfect. Afterwards in Zanzibar everything was well planned and Lee is very flexible with his scheduling. Was thankful having him because it really takes all the worries so we could just enjoy our stay. He is very trustworthy and always in GOOD mood! Thank You for being the best guide!!
I'm thrilled to hear that you and your group enjoyed my tours and had an unforgettable experience during your vacation in Zanzibar. Thank you for choosing me as your personal private tour guide. Your kind words about the villa I recommended and the safari trip we took together in Mikumi National Park mean a lot. I'm delighted that you all had such a wonderful time. I look forward to sharing more of Zanzibar's wonders with you in the future. You were a fantastic group, and it was a pleasure serving you. Cheers, Kindest regards, Hafidh / Lee
We did a tour with Mr. Spice (preferred name) and the tour was really good. Mr. Spice was knowledgeable and made sure we saw all the important points in Stone Town. Time well spent and would recommend everyone to do this tour
Thank you so much for the splendid review, We're quite thrilled to hear that you had a great time doing the tour with Mr. Spice :) You're an amazing. Kindest Hafidh
Our tour with Mohammed exceeded our expectations. Not only does he have a lot of knowledge about the history and complex relationships of the city, but he also patiently answered our many questions. We were able to see the most important places in Stonetown and gain insights into the everyday lives of the people. We can only warmly recommend this tour and are also very satisfied with the organization. Thank you very much!
Really great tour - Mohammed was a fantastic guide all along our 3hrs + visit of Stone Town. Our trip there wouldn’t have been the same without him! It was a pleasure to learn from the different architecture styles, the different places such as the markets we clearly wouldn’t have visit without him (quite far to walk there from the historic down town), and the the history behind those old walls and streets. Bottom line, I clearly recommend! Thanks again 🙏 Aline & Robin
Thank you so much for trusting us, we're always happy to help. Cheers :) Kindest Hafidh
Our tour guide Lee was amazing. He was very knowledgeable and gave us 3.5 days of tours and excursions tailored to what we wanted to do in Zanzibar. We always felt safe and nothing was too much trouble. Lee is very patient also as my 7 year old daughter can be quite slow at times. He had great knowledge on the history in Zanzibar, he was always on time for every excursion. If we were to come back to visit again we would only use Lee! Highly recommended, 5 stars!
Thank you so for taking the time to be with me as your personal private guide during your vacation in Zanzibar. I'm eagerly looking forward to reshowing you what Zanzibar has a lot more to explore in the near future. You're an amazing :) Kindest Hafidh
