Reliable and honest guide - We'd met Ali in Stone Town, where we had a nice conversation and he'd offered us a variaty of tours in Zanzibar. We told him that we wanted to explore Stone Town by ourselves first and that we would consider to contact him later. He totally understood this and was not pushy to sell us something. When we walked through Stone Town we were approached by many guidds, who
were very pushy to sell us tours. Thats why we decided to contact Ali again and booked tours with him. He knows everything about Zanzibar and is a nice and reliable guy. Also he charged fair prices. We've recommend his services to other people we met in the hotel and they were satisfied too.
