5.00Mady gave us a lot of great information about history of the stone town and Zanzibar. Very detail. We walk through major sites. And pass through small alleys like a local. And Mady gave us good tips about the street night market, some may not very safe to eat. Other than no tropical fruit and grilled seafood. Everything for us to try was there. Many good local experiences.
The best food in Zanzibar

5.00The best part was food we tried at the market where usually only locals eat. Beef broth with chapati was the best. 2. I have never seen such huge avocados in my life. 3. I was surprised to learn some historical facts while walking along the narrow streets on Stone Town 4. Khomad is a fantastic guide - highly recommend
Incredible local experience.

5.00Mady is a punctual Tourguide, very knowledgeable not only about Zanzibar but the world history he took us discovering the old town then we went to non touristic places to explore the real local lifestyle and how people do in operating their daily bases. This actually was wonderful day under the umbrella of great tourguide. Everything is polepole and hakuna matata we love it.
