We have done Mikumi Safari, Salaam Cave, Mtende Beach, The Rock, Prison Island, Nakupenda Sand Bank with BBQ and Stone Town with Sefi from Paradisetourandsafari! From pick up and drop off from our hotel and arranging plane ride for the Safari then private boat t o Nakupende sand bank and BBQ nothing has been a hassle for him. We have had nothing to sort or worry about!!!
This is very wonderful review, thank you for having me, God bless you.
Our guide arrived at the hotel 15 mins late, wore a dirty company t-shirt with a hole under the arm, then promptly marched us to the starting point. He talked a bit about the history of Africa but was quite hard to understand. Two if the places we were supposed to visit ie House if Winders was under refurbishment and therefore closed. The Old Fort had been bought by a Dubai developer so was also closed. He gave us information about the different styles of doors and took us down the narrow streets where we found a man who was making pictures out of palm tree leaves which was very interesting. The tour only took a couple of hours and most of the info he gave us we could have read on the signs next to the buildings. I wouldn’t recommend this tour.
First it was not true, secondly I was telling them that , I took the public transport, but it was getting problem, so I added 15 minutes, about the t-shirt , it was a gray ,and it was company t-shirt and it was nice ,Aparty from that, I infersized the history very deeply, and I shew them examples DRC congo ,Gambia, she said not,this is not true ,this is political, I told her, this is not policy, it was happening, and it appears ,about the information on next building, its information and my information is the same ,she did not want to understand me, because she hated me , And she was acting to know her language much, but her husband was understanding nearly, I used alot of ways ,she still didn't want to understand me,I think that ,her aim to destroy my job , but it is ok.
The tour guide was very flexible and helpful. The city tour itself went a bit quickly (I was a solo traveller, it might be different with a bigger group, and the tour did not include the Anglican Zanzibar Diocese), but then Boban helped organize a last minute snorkeling outing to Bawe Island, which was the highlight of my day!
Thank you for nice the review, we hope that, we will get other customers soon. God bless you very much.
Good tour guide, knowledge on Zanzibar history, a good visit
Thank you for wonderful review, I hope that,I will get other visitors, God bless you more and more.
We also did the Spice Farm tour with lunch. Fantastic history tour with the most knowledgeable guide! The Stone Town tour was unforgettable with the guide -Salum Jumane! He knows his history and went out of his way to assist us in payment issues and even offered to pay with his own money! Totally honest and reliable, would highly recommended.
Thank you for fascinating the review, we hope that, we will get other visitors soon,inshallah.
Would definitely recommend booking with paradise tours for your trip to zanzibar. The stone tour was incredible with our tour guide, he was very knowledgable about everything. We seen Freddy Mercurys house this tour was $10 each (which you pay yourself) but was worth it. Our guide curated a plan that suited us, after the stone town we then went on a sunset cruise which was amazing, the boat had a band playing traditional music with people dancing. The day was fantastic so I would highly recommend.
Thank you for amazing review, we hope that, we will get other visitors, God bless you very much.
We had Saif as our guide. He was well prepared and showed us patiently around in Stonetown where we saw a lot, and bypassed the spice market and the market. Super nice trip where we were picked up at our hotel and driven back.
Thank you for a super review, God bless you.
Learnt a lot, I enjoyed it. The tour guide was going a bit fast at the beginning but he was knowledgeable. For a 3hr tour it was worth it
This is a very wonderful review, we hope that, we will get other visitors, inshallah!and God bless you very much.
