Great time in Dar

This tour was an amazing opportunity to visit the main attractions of Dar es Salam and the tips offered by the guide were the best. I wish I could have more time to go deeper and discover the daily life here. Well-done Rashid

Between history and touristic Dar es salam

The walking tour was really nice, Rashid briefed us about the history of Tanzania, and showed us all the good spots, also we were able to try lot of seafood in the local fish market. The overall experience was amazing.

A walk must have with in Dar es Salaam City.

Had an amazing walking tour with Rashid. He gave deep dive into the city's rich history, diverse architecture and culture. A fun and alert tour guide that really gives you a feel for the city's history and local life. The most standout was exploring the Kariakoo Market. It is incredibly busy and can be a bit overwhelming, but Rashid was so alert and constantly looked out for me. I felt totally safe navigating the crowds with him leading the way. We also visited the fish market explained how the locals bid for the sea products and more stories when we arrive to each monument location that I definitely would’ve walked right past on my own. We ended the tour at Coco Beach in a local restaurant having Ugali and beans (my first local dish, loving it!!). Highly Recommend ! Asante Rashid for the amazing tour!!

Spontaneous and interesting

Had a great tour! He was available very last minute and didn’t mind changing the time for us! It was a very chill tour! He made us feel very comfortable even when walking in very local areas, where we usually wouldn’t go, and he seemed to know a lot of people. Asante Sana!
