Excellent guide
5/5

I was traveling with a friend and her two daughters. Faustin was a patient, knowledgeable guide and we very much enjoyed our tour of the island, including a spice farm and the Jozani Forest. It was my first time to Zanzibar and I would hire him again and recommend him to others.

excellent!
5/5

Faustin was very nice. He was friendly, we went on a nice spice tour, we saw the adorable monkeys. He took us all around and made everything convenient and easy. He even set us up with his brother to take us around Dar es Salaam during a long layover, so we got to see a bit of the city. I was just looking at our pictures the other day. My 2 daughters with me also really enjoyed the tour of Zanzibar. Faustin was great, he was recommended to us by someone else and I'm so glad we had him to show us around.

Great safari experience
5/5

We had a great safari experience from Dar es Salaam to Mikumi National Park with Faustin Tours. We stayed in Tan-Swiss lodge, which is a very nice hotel. Also, we would recommend booking transfers from Faustin. Everything was on time and exactly as agreed!

Trustworthy care - above and beyond expectations
5/5

I met Faustin before he started his tour company as a friend when we were travelling Tanzania & Zanzibar. 14 years later, I still remember his kindness and care to us. My aunt was desperately ill and Faustin found us a doctor in the middle of the night in Stone Town, far away from where we were staying, and waited outside for hours for us, and later, while my aunt was in hospital, took care of me and our other travelling companion. When we left Zanzibar for Arusha, Faustin came with us to the chaotic, crazy, confusing, overwhelming bus terminal and found our bus - which sounds minor - but those that were travelling in 2000 and used that bus terminal can attest to the absolute insanity. And remember, Faustin was our friend - he wasn't our guide - and he took the fast boat with us to Arusha just to make sure we safely got on the right bus in Arusha. When we returned from Safari, days later, as promised, there was Faustin - waiting for us at the bus terminal. And when the taxi driver accidently took off with my aunt's luggage and camera in his trunk, it was Faustin who found him for us. We are still friends to this day and I simply can't imagine a better vocation for him than tour guide. I would recommend him whole heartedly - based on what a wonderful friend he was to us 3 Canadians.

A great experience which my wife and I will always cherish
5/5

Faustin helped my wife and I plan our honey moon in Tanzania. He pretty much helped us organize the whole trip starting with the safari in Mikumi Nation Park all the way to the two weeks we spent on the island of Zanzibar.

From the moment we landed in Dar es Salaam Faustin took care of everything: he took us from the airport and provided us with a car and driver who took us to Mikumi National Park. When we arrived at the resort, everything ready for us: our room with 3 meals a day; a car and guide in each day for just my wife and I.

After the 3 day safari, which was amazing, the driver took us back to Dar es Salam and Faustin waiting for us at the ferry station. He was kind enough to stand in line at the ticket queue so that we could get some rest.

Once again, when we arrived on the island of Zanziber, everything was ready for us: rooms at hotels were already booked, drivers were waiting for us. We had tour guides reserved where ever we went: Stone Town, Prison Island, Spices Plantation, Joziani Forrest and I'm sure that there are other places which I don't recall at this very moment.

When it was all said and done, Faustin safely escorted us back to the Airport in Dar es Salaam.

Overall it was a very pleasant experience and a great vacation which Faustin helped us plan and I would recommend his services with full confidence.

Great personal Service
5/5

Faustin and his team are not a huge operator but provide excellent service and were dedicated to make sure my wife and I had a great time. We went after our Ngornogoro Crater Safari to Zanzibar (Melia Hotel). Tanzania is one of the best places to see great wildlife in combination with beautiful beaches.

If you are looking for a good, reliable operator in Tanzania, look no further.

Excellent Private Tour/Holiday Package
5/5

We had a great time in Tanzania, thanks to Faustin and his team. He took us from the airport even in 3:30 am (because of our flight g hour), so we didn't have to stay until 7 am at the airport for him to come and pick us. We did safari in Mikumi National Park and stayed at Tan-Swiss Lodge (I highly recommend it). We had a private guide and private driver during the whole stay at the country. After the safari, the driver took us to Dar, from where we took the ferry to Zanzibar. There we were taken to Prison Island tour and Spice tour (again we had a private boat and private car only for me and my boyfriend). Our last days we spent in Nungwi village at Mnarani Beach Cottages, where we were just lying on the beach and collecting sunlight. After the holiday at Nungwi, he took us to the airport. Excellent Service. I will recommend him to anyone :)

It was real fun fare equalled by none in my past experience.
5/5

Faustintours to me is a well co-ordinated tour guide. The staff in particular are not only welcoming and charming but willing to go extra mile to ensure your safaris achieve aburndancy in site seeing and wild life experuence.

They choose what is top of chart in transport facilities, four wheel drive vehicles that offer top class comfort for the long adventure ahead. My wife was left in awe after we completed the tour of Mikumi, Selou and Udzungwa. She could not believe that Tanzania is home to gret wonders in wildlife and amazing virgin landscape almost equallling paradise.

In not distant future, I look forward to resample my safari experience with them.
