About Us

At Blue View Tours and Safaris, we’ve provided insightful and entertaining tours across Zanzibar's and Tanzania's most stunning cities for more than 7 years. It all began in 2015 with one tour aimed at introducing travelers to a different side of Stone Town: the Blue Heart of Zanzibar. Our founder and CEO, Eidd Hassan wanted to show Zanzibar in a new light and was passionate about giving travelers an incredible, memorable experience in the Blue City.  This simple premise sparked the essence of Blue View: "Yes" to smaller groups, exclusive customer benefits, exceptional guides, and excellent customer service. "No" to over-crowded, generic tours with sub-standard guides and long waits in line.

This simple formula worked so well that we were able to expand across Zanzibar and throughout Tanzania to East Africa countries. In more recent years, we’ve developed tours in Kenya, Uganda and Rwanda, all while keeping our core principles in mind.
