Overall, a very good experience. Hassan has been very patient since it rained a lot when we were about to visit the Mosque which is one of the highlights, he messaged a colleague who has an umbrella to fetch us from the National Museum. Waited again for few minutes after since all the taxis were full because of the heavy rain. The tour hours was extended and its no big deal for them as it was caused by the unexpected rain

Our driver picked us up at the port entrance and took us around town. We made several stops where he parked and took us on short walks to see some of the older and historic buildings in the city. Be advised that some of the sites have a few short or uneven steps. Not difficult, just a little unexpected. So watch your step. We especially enjoyed the Hindu Temple with all the outside carvings of the gods and the Buddhist Temple. It was interesting to see how the influences of the Dutch, British and others have influenced the city.

The tour was supposed to pick us up at the airport. We waited there and finally they said they are waiting for us at the Airport Ferry Terminal on Male side. Then the tour guide said it will be just a 1 hour tour when the tour was advertised to be 3 hours. So after 1 hour 15 min he took us to a very expensive restaurant. He kept saying we should try their steamed fish which costs about $70. We opted for a steamed crab dish. There were only 2 small crabs in crab soup with some vegetables which was $40. We also ordered a cheese nan which wasn't very good.

Very knowledgeable tour guide. For$5US extra each way, picked up and dropped off at hotel (worth it, because we were on Hulhumale, a long way from meeting point. Oldest mosque on the island (1658) is built of hand engraved Interlocking coral blocks.

The most memorable part of the tour is the human touch showed by our tour guides, Hassan & Mamdhooh. It was raining during our tour and we went around in a car (with extra charges) instead of the ferry, with Mamdhooh driving and Hassan as the co-pilot. We spent more than 3 hours touring the city and we had a lot of fun chit chatting like we were old friends. Hassan went the extra miles too after dropping us of at the airport and showed us the airport lounge as we had more than 3 hours to spare before we checked in for our flight home. The hospitality was exceptional. Will definitely recommend them.

We really enjoyed the tour with Abdull. He was very knowledgeable and went at a reasonable pace in the heat. World have given this 5 stars but it was bout the hours as advertised but 1.5 hours. The length was just right at that.

Kurzweiliger und informativer Stadtrundgang, um mehr über die Hauptstadt, ihre Sitten, Bräuche und die maledivische Kultur zu erfahren.
Die alte Freitagsmoschee ist sehr schön, ich kann die Tour jedem empfehlen; Ein besonderer Dank geht an Sam für seine Freundlichkeit und angenehmen Erklärungen während der Tour.

Zeker niet op een vrijdag de stad
bezoeken, alles is in de voormiddag tot 14 uur gesloten.
Niet al te groot

Tour completo e istruttivo per conoscere la capitale le sue abitudini i costumi e la cultura maldiviana.
Molto bello il mercato del pesce, consiglio a tutti il tour; un grazie particolare a Mamdhooh per la gentilezza e la disponibilità sia durante il tour che successivamente per rendere speciale la nostra vacanza
