Take a private car to the beautiful countryside outside of busy Stone Town or from your hotel and enjoy a three- to four-hour trip to Zanzibar's interesting spice plantations. We think a delicious home-cooked meal (pilau, curried vegetables in creamed turmeric, katchumbari salad, and bean falafel with coconut chutney) would be a great way to end the trip. This trip is best coupled with a trip to Stone Town, Prison Island, or a culinary lesson.
Spice Island is another name for Zanzibar. It is a well-known producer of spices, particularly cloves. A spice trip is a must-do if you want to see rural Zanzibar and interact with the locals. Prepare yourself for sensory overload. You will be exposed to the enticing aromas and flavours of raw cinnamon, nutmeg, cardamom, turmeric, black pepper, and vanilla, as well as a feast of exotic tropical fruits. Our knowledgeable and well-trained guide will explain everything you discover there. This excursion may be paired with the Stone Town Tour or the Prison Island Tour.
Our clients will be able to get to know the locals by purchasing handcrafted items, fresh spices, and fresh fruits from adjacent stores and farms. Most handcrafted items are made by groups of women in poor areas who are trying to help their communities. Purchasing something from them is one way to give back to the community.
