This my honest opinion: met Thafseer outside cruise terminal, being a girl I was a bit apprehensive of having to negotiate with the tuk tuk drivers! Thafseer was kind, professional. Took us around and we had the best tour. Very relaxing, he was not pushy at all. Easy going and happy. Highly recommend him
