Hamza was great with planning our time in Zanzibar. His responses were quick and detailed. Our stay was during raining season but Hamza ensured we completed all our activities by moving them around. Salum, our guide/driver was also great and knowledgeable. Overall, a wonderful experience and will definitely recommend Halisi for travel to Tanzania.
Halisi African Tours did an amazing job communicating with us prior to our trip and even rearranging activities due to weather. We were paired with the best tour guides that were very knowledgeable and made us feel safe the entire time! 10/10 recommended
I wish I can check more than one activity because Hamza was our go-to for all things while we were in Zanzibar. From the great Stone Town tour walking, to the Sandbank and Prison Island Tour, and much more. He was always timely, super knowledgeable, very professional and made our trip fun! We can't wait to be back and explore mainland activities. Thank you so much, Hamza!!
karibu sana Savina you guys are great. It was rely good meeting with you. Waiting to show you the wonders of Tanzania soon 😁
Our guide, Hamza, was great - super knowledgeable, and really welcoming and friendly. The tour was a great introduction to Stone Town and helped us get oriented and learn about the neighborhoods. Hamza also helped us navigate the crowded markets. A great way to spend a few hours.
Dears thanks for taking your time to write this review, It was a great time to have you and enjoy the walking tour. Asante Sana and Karibu!
Our guider Juma is more than just a guider, he was punctual and very informative. He showed us around and told us a great history of Sultans, culture, and slave trade. We visited an old fort, the slave market, and the spice market. The Zanzibar doors and the stone town architectures are fascinating.
We had an excellent guide who told us everything about the historical background of Stone Town and recommended a nice restaurant in the city centre.
Thank you for your good reviews and being our customer. You are always welcome. Asante Sana!
