Our great guide, Musa, met us at our hotel and we left together with Seif who drove us around to see the most important sites pertaining to the slave trade on the main island.
The sites were incredibly interesting to see but it was Musa's detailed explanations and discussion which really helped us out everything into context.
We thank Musa for his excellent company, a gentleman of old :) We highly recommend this tour.
