Trip of a lifetime 2024!
I just got back from the trip of a lifetime in Tanzania, Africa. Our tour guide and main host was Hamza. Hamza is absolutely amazing! He carefully planned our trip for a group of about 15 of us. He picked us up from the airport and arranged all tours and activities. Hamza is very detail-oriented and sharing this trip planning with him felt like I was working with family. After the business part of our trip, Hamza, set up a safari experience which also turned out to be wonderful. I would highly recommend Hamza for your travel needs. Thank you Hamza and to your wife for cooking for us.

Excellent Swahili cultural tour.
It was really interesting and fun to learn about different Swahili cultures from the locals. The tour was well organized and felt respectful to the locals and their space. I met with a traditional healer, weaver and a lovely Swahili woman that showed me how to get coconut milk from a coconut! I highly recommend this trip to anyone that’s looking for an opportunity to genuinely interact with locals in Jambiani.

Un villaggio autentico coloratissimo
Ancora incontaminato dai turisti, villaggio piccolo ma incantevole, pieno di bambini (anche se molti chiedono 1 dollaro).

Authentic and fun!
This class was such a delight in so many ways. Hamza met us at the hotel and took us to the local market with Miriam to buy all the ingredients for the meals. We were given a myriad of choices on what we wanted to cook that day. Miriam is such a is such a joy to spend time with and she hand Hamza not only explained the recipes and how to cook, but also gave us historical and cultural perspective on food, Stonetown, and anything else we wanted to ask about regarding their experiences in Zanzibar. We chose pumpkin soup, rice pilau, chicken curry, and coconut/cinnamon/cardamom/banana dessert. It was one of the best meals we ate in Zanzibar. Looking forward to receiving the recipes to try to recreate the island at home. It was all so much fun and so delicious all rolled up into one authentic and perfect experience. We also went to Miriam's Baboo Beach Cafe for dinner that night. We would highly recommend you put this on your Zanzibar list of things to do!

Hamza is the best!
Hamza is an incredible tour guide. We recommend him 10/10! In fact, we had plans to use a different tour company on Wednesday and Friday, with Hamza's Stone Town and Spice Plantation tour landing on the Thursday in between. We ended up canceling with the other company for Friday and using Hamza instead because he was just that awesome. The other company wasn't bad per say (they facilitated the things we hired them to arrange), but Hamza was much friendlier and enthusiastic about the work he is doing here. He is from the islands and loves being Pemban/Zanzibari. It shows through the thorough tours that he gives and the way he interacts with all of the people around. It seems like he knows everyone! He bought us some local snacks to try (make sure you eat the Zanzibari Mix in Stone Town!!), gave us an incredible tour of Stone Town and then the Spice Farms. We didn't want just a facilitator, but we wanted a guide...someone who could answer our questions and really help us get to know the Zanzibari culture. His English is excellent! We also went to the Nakupenda Sand Bar and then to Prison Island with him, as well. He built sand castles with our kids, showed us around and made us feel like family. Book with him - you won't regret it!!
