Unforgetable moment - Unforgettable Stone Town, Prison Island & Spice Tour! I had an incredible day exploring Stone Town, Prison Island, and the Spice Farm with Ibramy de Zanzibar. The tour was perfectly planned, and our guide was professional, friendly, and full of interesting stories about Zanzibar's rich history and culture. Walking through the narrow streets of Stone Town felt like a journey through time. Prison Island was beautiful and relaxing, especially seeing the giant tortoises. The Spice Tour was a highlight – we smelled, touched, and tasted fresh spices straight from the trees! I highly recommend this tour for anyone looking to experience the real Zanzibar. Thank you for the amazing experience!

Fantastic trip with Ibramy!!!!! - Myself and my friends ( girls trip ) had a fantastic trip in Zanzibar. All the credit and thanks to ur tour guide . From the time we landed in Zanzibar and until we leave , he was there to help us and took around all the places even to the places we did not know. Special thanks to him for arranging a surprise birthday cake for me . We felt very safe with them and had so much fun . We were amazed with the places we visited, of course we've learned a few things since we never been there before. BUT, the most fab of all is the Prison Island , Kendwa beach and Paje . He took around and was very happy to explain about their culture and traditions.! I would like to thank Ibrahim and his Team for being such a wonderful tour guide, entertainer that keeps our trip high! I personally highly recommended him We are looking forward for our next trip! !

He is an exceptional guide: professional, warm, passionate and always attentive. Thanks to him, we discovered the culture, history and hidden treasures of the island with authenticity.

Great Guide! - We came in 2023. Ibrahim was our guide. We felt the love he has for his island and its history. The fact that he speaks French is a real asset. We were able to ask lots of questions and learned a lot! Ibrahim was very attentive to us, offering us a little souvenir that we obviously still have. Thanks for everything, we felt accompanied and not too much thanks to Ibrahim. We recommend it, you can trust it! Sabrina & Thomas de France.
