        Jambiani women's tour
        I had Jambiani women's tour with Ameir. It was very interesting and informative tour, deeping in the different aspects of the traditional women's life in Zanzibar village. And the personality of the guide adds to the tour even more pleasantness. Ameir is very knowledgeable person with a great respect and carry towards old ladies of the village, and he is also extremely friendly and added lots of joy to the tour. I spent the wonderful time during this tour. Thanks so much

        My highlight in Zanzibar
        I lived in Zanzibar for just over a year and this was one of the highlights of my entire stay. Ameir is a wonderful guide and the women we met were just fabulous! It was so interesting to learn about the traditional work that women in the village do. We learned about seaweed farming, how to separate the coconut fibre and make coconut rope out of it, how to make a doormat, and how to make traditional fencing out of palm leaves. Be prepared to be put to shame when making coconut rope, the mamas make it look so easy but it's SO hard!!

        An incredible journey looking at the lives of the women in Jambiani
        Ameir is a very smart, incredible young man. His tour is so informative and important to do! You often see the men and what they do throughout the village but it is rare to see and know about the women and their role. These women are incredible and do so much for their village and for a living, they are so important to the community and Ameir’s tour really allows you to see inside the life of these women. You not only get to walk around the village and experience the different things these women do, like harvest sea weed, make cocunut rope, weave baskets, make roofs out of palm tree leaves, make henna, etc. But you get to experience it first hand and try for yourself! You even get to see the different ways and meanings of how they wear their kanga. The women are very kind and welcoming and you feel nothing but a sense of home in Jambiani. If you are going to be in Zanzibar I 100% would suggest taking Ameir’s tour! He really makes it special, it’s one of the best tours I’ve done.

        A brilliant insight in to the village
        Ameir took us through the village explaining to us how the women made a living. We watched as women cultivated seaweed, made baskets. We "helped" make rope from coconut shells, learnt how to wear a kanga and much more.

        I had the most wonderful tour learning everything local. I experienced watching the women make things from weaving to henna and the best part is I was able to try also. Amir has so much knowledge and speaks wonderful English. He wants to make sure you have a fabulous experience. I will use him also inStone Town city tour. .

        Best tour in town!
        Ameir’s tour is brilliant, really insightful and lots of fun. We visited a seaweed plantation and met local women from Jambiani who taught us how they made doormats, taught us about henna and lots more. It was lovely to sit and drink chai tea with them! I would really recommend this tour, you get experience local culture and meet inspiring people. Ameir is a fantastic tour guide, he is super friendly, knowledgeable and can answer any questions you have.

        Educational and Engaging!
        Loved that this tour was more than a tour- it was an experience of the local culture. You’re moving and engaged the entire time. Ameir took the time to answer all our questions. You sit with the ladies of Jambiani and learn to make coconut rope and other local items.

        The life of Jambiani women
        I really enjoy the local tour with Ameir. We walked with him in the village and on the beach and he showed us how the women in Jambiani earn their money. I really reccomend this trip.

        Wanawake wetu is one you don't want to miss!
        The tour with Ameir was an amazing tour with a lot of insights of the Jambiani life and the work the women do. While walking trough the village, we learned all about the seaweed plantations, coconut shells and how they make their product from it. Ameir also showed us the Kanga (fabric) the women wear and told us about how wearing it can symbolise their activity or express their feelings. This tour is definitely worth doing if you want to get a taste of the culture here.

        Brilliant way to spend a couple of hours
        The tour with Ameir was so so interesting. Incredible to get to see real life Jambiani & all the work the amazing women of the village do. To see how resourceful they are with what they have on their doorsteps is so inspiring. Seaweed to beauty products & coconuts to placemats - Fascinating to learn about the products’ journeys. Highly recommend this little adventure around Jambiani with a kind, funny & very knowledgable guide in Ameir.
