Company info

I was born in Pemba, a small island close to Zanzibar. But moved to Zanzibar Island as a young boy. I also spent some time in the U.S which I really enjoyed. My English is very good and I enjoy meeting new people.

Neighborhood info

We have one of East Africas most famous beaches just a mere 10 mins stroll for here! You can swim, snorkel, scuba dive, rent water bikes, or just laze on the beach. The waterfront has lots of fabulous restaurants right at the waters edge. And for those who want some nightlife, there are bars with music and dancing at weekends. Nungwi has 2 turtle aquariums,one you can swim in with the turtles. Also there are plenty of excursions, boat trips, snorkel trips, sunset cruises, and trips further afield to one of the spice tours, swimming with dolphins at Kizamkazi, also Jozani forest that is home to the Colobus monkeys and more.
