Description

Start your adventure with a comfortable hotel pickup. Travel through Zanzibar’s scenic countryside toward a spice plantation. Upon arrival, your local guide greets you amid clove trees, vanilla vines, and cinnamon bark — the air alive with fragrances. Stroll along the planting rows, your fingers brushing against pepper vines, and taste fresh nutmeg, vanilla, cardamom, and aromatic herbs. Next, witness a skilled coconut climber ascend to the canopy, then crack open and serve fresh coconut water — a refreshing and authentic treat. After, savor a hearty Swahili lunch made with fresh farm ingredients: rice, vegetables, local seasoning, and local flavors. Take your time to shop for fresh spices, observe local processing, or relax in nature’s green. At the end, return by vehicle to your lodging, enriched with insights into the island’s spice heritage, culture, and hidden botanical treasures.
