Description

We stored our car here when going to Mafia Island as the Old Swedish Mission was abandoned.

There is a guy in Nyamisati called Shabaan. He seems to take most tourists on their way through under his wing and is incredibly helpful and arranged this for us.

He organized our car to be stored on the government grounds (10k a night and even on the night we slept there before leaving). You give the money to the security guard of the grounds, which Shabaan agreed on our behalf.

I cannot vouch for the security, as people walk through daily and the gate is broken, but everyone assured us that since it's a government place it was safe and we left for 4 days and upon returning, were found everything perfect.

Give Shabaan a call to arrange whatever you need in the area. His English is very good, his ex-wife runs a nice place to eat and he will even meet you at the ferry on departure and arrival to make sure you are ok.

He didn't ask for anything for his service, so we gave him 30k for his enormous help.

You can reach him at this number, he welcomes all inquiries:

Shabaan was of great help and storage is now not any more on a government ground but in a restaurant. All went fine, left my car for 1 week.
