Description

Masingini Hiking Forest Adventure Start your day deep in the heart of Masingini Forest Reserve, located just outside Zanzibar Town. This beautiful forest sits on one of the island’s highest points, offering cool air and panoramic views of Stone Town and the Indian Ocean. Your guided hike takes you through rich tropical vegetation filled with huge trees, colorful butterflies, monkeys, and rare bird species. Along the way, your local guide explains the forest’s history, native plants, and how local communities protect this important ecosystem. It’s a refreshing nature walk that reconnects you with the peaceful side of Zanzibar beyond the beaches. Zipline Adventure Next, get your heart racing with a zipline ride across the forest canopy. Glide safely from platform to platform, high above the green treetops, and feel the cool breeze on your face as you enjoy a stunning bird’s-eye view of Masingini. The experience is both thrilling and safe, guided by professional instructors who ensure fun for all ages. It’s a perfect mix of adventure and nature! Spice Farm Tour After your zipline adventure, continue your journey to one of Zanzibar’s famous spice farms. Here, you’ll walk through fragrant gardens filled with cloves, nutmeg, vanilla, lemongrass, cinnamon, turmeric, and cardamom — the very spices that made Zanzibar known as the “Spice Island.” You’ll see how each spice is grown, harvested, and used in cooking and medicine. Guides will invite you to taste, smell, and even guess each spice by its aroma. It’s a fun and educational tour that connects culture, nature, and history. Traditional Swahili Lunch Finally, relax and enjoy a freshly prepared Swahili-style lunch made with ingredients from the farm — think coconut rice, grilled fish or chicken, fresh vegetables, and tropical fruits. The meal is served in a natural garden setting, offering a peaceful moment to unwind and reflect on your adventure-filled day.
