One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Honestly I have met and helped many travellers to succeed their plan of visit my country Tanzania.
I helped and arranged so many trips for students, solo travellers, tourist and budget people.

As guide I manage to visit almost all national parks in Tanzania, but I was so much happy to do hiking trails at gombe national park home of chimpanzees trekking.
It was so lovely amazing tour I can't forget:
I was safari Cook worked almost 6 years before to become a guide this made me to meet with a lots of Europe people and helpful for my new job as GUIDE.

Teach, Learn, Share

TEACH: can teach you how to make or cook Ugali one of the best African food you should taste when you travel here.

LEARN: open to learn anything new something positive not negative!

SHARE: my travel experience guiding and hidden gems and unforgettable experience I have made so far with beautiful photos. I can send you some pictures if interesting even before we meet. Just if you will aske to share them and only need your WhatsApp.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I,m a politely man understanding and helpful! I hate to see people feeling sad and the lier man he is not my type, as guide I may be sometime busy with my job but I can leave my key with you and you will be staying with kids so always you will not feel lonely at all.
I heard from a friend from Canada said sometimes couch suffers scared to contact with guide through couch as they think they will be expected to be asked about tour or money!
Please I,m not that kind of Guide and I get payed with my company and I will be here to help you with best option or plan when you plan to do something, if you ask me to help you sure I can but I will not ask to go any tour with me till you say.
Before created my account I read and understood this link.
