Abraham (“Abracadabra”) and his team are great! The are fun to chat with and to take the journey with. He has many fun relatable stories to accompany the tour, especially the spice tour. The lunch is home made and delicious! The town tour is so casual and with many shop owners familiar with this local native. The knowledge about the scenery is so helpful.
Note: bring cash! Any retail products sold, tips to be granted, etc are cash based (no credit card, no digital payments of any sort). Be generous.

Tour guide was one hour late to pick me up, I had to contact the company to ask where he was and they said his phone wasn't ringing. Finally they got me a taxi which brought me to meet up with him and he was still late for that. The spice tour was great but then the walking tour was terrible. I have been to 30+ countries and I've never had so much trouble understanding someone's English. He provided minimal information at all places and then he wanted me to pay extra admission to each museum even after paying for this pricey tour which can be found much cheaper within the city. Also didn't take me to the old slave market. He was unprofessional and sleeping in the taxi ride both ways. Do not recommend this company

Mike was a very good tour guide and very friendly. He knew alot about the place and took us to places we would have preferred to see. If we got too hot he would make a plan to find a place to cool down

The spice farm was fascinating- so many different varieties. And the lunch using those spices was amazing and delicious. The tour of Stone Town was just ok. I think by that point everyone, including the guide, was too hot and tired. The spice farm was with it. Wait for the private walking tour of Stone Town to get all the history. All that being said, our guide was very kind.
