Our tour guide Omar, was excellent. He was extremely knowledgable about Prison Island and made the tour fun as well as informative.
First time visiting Zanzibar and he made sure my sister and I had a wonderful experience. He took his time explaining everything to us. Such an honest, patient tour guide. We always felt safe around him and his prices were fair. He worked with our budget and, made sure we still made unforgettable memories. I recommend anyone visiting this Island for the first time to use him.
He was great and explained everything really clearly! I would definitely recommend him to other travelers. Mention for the vert good guide Ghalib
