About
Great tour through old town with very knowledgeable guides like John and Mwangi. Walking through old-town alleyways and residential neighborhoods shows spots you wouldn't see otherwise. Very interesting history presented and told expertly. Reasonable price with good communication. Highly recommendable tour guides.

We had a great tour through the old town with john. He is very knowledgeable. We particularly enjoyed walking through the old-town alleyways that we would not have seen otherwise. Good coomunication beforehand as well. Thumbs up!

We were so lucky to find the guide. The price is reasonable and the tour includes various spots. I love the most when the guide took us to walk through the residential neighborhoods and alleys. Really enjoyed the half-day tour.

I went for the old town tour ...honestly it was so disappointing, the tour is short with barely anything to excite you as much. There are a few old building that are run down and you can only see the outside.
