We did the Sunset-Moon rise boat ride in the dhow, with my entire family of almost 20 people and it was the most memorable boat ride ever, more so because,… read more it was really amazingly beautiful to see the sun set in the west and the moon rise from the east, simultaneously. A sight we have never ever seen before. The ambiance in the dhow was also very rustic, but equally peaceful and serene, with the local musicians serenading us. I have been for many boat rides , but really nothing like this. Most of all we thoroughly enjoyed having you also with us.

  Busara tours offers really special walking tours through Stone Town that you don’t find at any other company. I booked the tour about the daily live of local women. I… read more learned a lot and it was super interesting; it’s like you get a very special view behind the curtain! And you get an impression about the living in this wonderful old town – about traditions and modern living. Salma is a great guide and you feel like a friend, not like a tourist. I highly recommend Busara Tours.

  I met Salma while I was visiting Zanzibar on a solo holiday. As soon as I met her and found out she had her own tour company, I immediately cancelled… read more the other tour I had booked previously. Salma was so kind and informative on Zanzibar that I knew I wanted to take my tours with her. It was the best decision I made while in Zanzibar!

She is so easy to work with, her rates are reasonable and her tour guides were some of the kindest people in Zanzibar. Being female and traveling alone, you want to make sure you are comfortable with your tour guides. Ali took me on a tour to Prison Island as well the Spice Tour and he could not have been any more respectful and fun. I had the most wonderful day with him, all planned by Salma. Even the boat captain and driver to the Spice tour were unbelievably kind and polite.

Booking with Salma is a must if you are visiting Zanzibar. She loves her city, her tour are incredibly organized and she works with the best people. She truly made Zanzibar an extra memorable trip for me.
