Hi All,

Before I disappear from your screen i though i would pass on the contact details of a couple of people/establishments that have really impressed me. Trying to do my bit for the local economy. Btw I may have been conned this morning, some bloke helped me buy a knife (indian like me) then told me about he had caught his wife cheating on him in front of his little daughter and that he needed 5000 Tsh to go to the Mainland to talk with his mother about what to do. The guy broke down in front of me and seemed genuine. I didn;t have the heart to say no, now i've been wondering all day if i have been had!!!
Zanzibar stone town, is like Lamu but falling into pieces, Zanzibar Island I haven't had the chance to go to the Northern or eastern beaches yet (they are supposed to be great) but I am leaving today throughly un-impressed. Will be back in 4 weeks and we'll see if it looks better second time around.

Anyway below are the recomendations. Laters Bhav

If you are planning a Safari in Kenya and need a guide try emailing this fellow. He is very knowleadge and plesant. He has his own company to help arrange Safari's and better than all that he is local and is part of a community tourisum project.
