Spice Farm Tour
The reason it is called the Spice Island, tasted and smelled first-hand.
Zanzibar built its name on spice, and a farm visit brings it to life. You walk the plantations picking and smelling cloves, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, cardamom and more, with a farmer showing you how each one grows.
There is fruit to taste along the way and usually a chance to buy spices at the source. It is hands-on, relaxed and a favourite with families. We arrange the farm and guiding.
Highlights
- Cloves, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg and more
