5.00Confirmation of reservation was amazingly quick- I received a WhatsApp message from tour guide Aylton within minutes. My booking was last minute so I really appreciated his availability and quick response. The tour itself was great. Definitely worth it to see the historic sites of the city and learn about Mozambican history and culture from a local. We went to some places I never could have seen or enjoyed on my own. Some nice surprises along the way, including sampling fruit I never saw before in my life (and I’ve traveled extensively). Aylton’s English language was very good and I highly recommend booking a tour with him.
Informative tour and friendly guide!

5.00Lovely way to see on foot the main sites of the city! Aylton is knowledgeable and a clear communicator. He isn't just repeating a script but is ready to adapt to one's interests and thoughtfully answer questions and discuss. As a single female I also felt perfectly safe with him. I highly recommend this tour.
