I stayed at Good Times with Far House in Moshi a few weeks ago and honestly had one of the best travel experiences I’ve ever had. Far is an incredibly kind and thoughtful host who genuinely cares about his guests and takes the time to make you feel welcome. What made this stay so special was that Far didn’t just give recommendations, he showed me Moshi through his own lens. Because of him, I got to experience the city in a much more authentic way, meet wonderful people, and gain a real insight into everyday life there. The hospitality was unmatched and the atmosphere felt warm, open, and genuinely human. If you’re looking for more than just accommodation and want a meaningful experience in Moshi, I couldn’t recommend this place more highly. Thank you again, Far! I’ll always remember my time there.

Beautiful, peaceful stay in a friendly and peaceful home! Kind and communicative host!

What a wonderful, peaceful stay at Good time with Far. It was perfect from start to finish. Far immediately reached out to me to make sure that everything would be in order for my arrival owing to the last minute booking. Far also took the time and effort to check in with me that I was safe and ok when I was coming back late from work. Far and everyone at the House was warm, friendly, and kind while being discreet, and giving space. Thank you everyone!

I was here for a week with my daughter. Far is a great great host together with his team around Amina. He made us feel at home from the first minute and is so helpful concerning everything: food, city tour, excursions, shopping, spa, laundry, you name it. The house is open to spend time together, play games, cook or watch TV. He has safe drivers for his guests and in general we felt safe and most welcome all the time. Thanks for everything. We'll be back.

The house itself is lovely and comfortable and situated in a nice quiet area slightly outside of the centre of Moshi. Far and his team are very friendly and helpful, and it felt like a home away from home. The breakfast is really nice and they have plenty of vegan options to order for dinner. Highly recommended! Asante Sana!

Best host!

Far is one of the best hosts I have ever had the pleasure of staying with. He made us feel very at home and went above and beyond to help us and show us Moshi during out stay. His house is such a magical safe space, especially for women travelling. We loved it and would recommend it to anyone travelling to Moshi.
