HB aka Happy Boy is a joyful and knowledgeable tour guide. We learnt a lot and enjoyed the tour
Communicable, knowledgeable, great English!
We met Ahmed at the harbor and got a fantastic tour with that little extra! He has enormous knowledge of the history of Zanzibar and Tanzania and also showed us some hidden gems. Now we are well prepared with a lot of insights for our last two days in Stonetown!
Ahmed was amazing. Kind, nice, clever High recommended!
HB was a great tour guide, integrating specific sights that we had requested with a fairly standard tour of the city (and Prison Island!). He also was very helpful when we were shopping, taking us to shops that had fixed prices, and assisting us with negotiating prices when our eyes were caught by other places. We thoroughly enjoyed our time in Stone Town!

This was a really enjoyable 3 hours around Stone Town. Our guide HB was perfect, really informative and thoughtful, he made the walk interesting,especially his knowledge of the slave market, educating us with great detail and a clear understanding of the horrific events. A guided tour is highly recommended especially if you could get H B as your guide. Mark and Sheelagh. Yorkshire. UK
