Description

Join us on an immersive journey through one of Zanzibar’s vibrant spice farms, located just outside Stone Town or in the countryside. Known as the 'Spice Island,' Zanzibar has a long-standing history of growing cloves, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, turmeric, lemongrass, cardamom, and more. As you walk through the plantation with a local guide, you’ll touch, smell, and taste a variety of freshly picked spices and tropical fruits. Learn about their medicinal uses, cooking benefits, and cultural significance in Swahili traditions. Enjoy a fruit tasting session featuring juicy pineapples, bananas, jackfruit, mangoes, and more — depending on the season. Watch a coconut tree-climbing demonstration and try on handmade spice accessories like necklaces and crowns made by the locals. You’ll also have the opportunity to purchase spices directly from the farm, bringing home the authentic taste of Zanzibar.
