Zanzibar spice farm tour
Smell, taste and learn about cloves, nutmeg, cinnamon and vanilla on a working spice farm.
Experience it your way.
Zanzibar grew rich on spices, and a farm visit is the easiest way to understand why. A local guide walks you through the plantation, picking leaves, bark and seeds for you to smell and taste — cloves, cinnamon, nutmeg, black pepper, vanilla, lemongrass and more.
Tours end with seasonal tropical fruit tasting and the chance to buy fresh spices. It combines easily with a Stone Town walk the same day.
What to look forward to
- Taste spices straight from the plant
- Tropical fruit tasting
- Spice and soap stalls
- Easy to combine with Stone Town
