Hi! This is Khamis, and I know the most interesting places in the tropical island of Zanzibar, from extraordinary natural areas to historical remains from the ancient world that I crave to share with travellers from all over. Booking me, you can be sure to obtain a great quality service from a licensed tour operator, with no rush or hurry. Zanzibar's ravishing beaches and its historic Stone Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in Zanzibar City, have utterly captivated me, and I can proudly say I have been guiding for 2 decades. I would love to contextualize you on the history of this archipelago, once a flourishing trading hub, which became a melting pot of African, Arab, Indian and European cultures. As we explore together, expect to see the vivid shades of every color imaginable, as well as the textures and vibrant energy of our seafront and our markets, with locals greeting you by saying “jambo” (hello) and “karibu” (welcome) every day. So get immersed in all that Zanzibar has to offer the right way; with a knowledgeable and polite guide that you can trust, who will focus on providing you with the kind of experience you wish to get, at your own pace.
