A Taste of Zanzibar’s Spice Heritage

Spice Farm Exploration

Your day begins with a visit to one of Zanzibar’s famous spice farms. Known as the “Spice Island,” Zanzibar has been a center for spice trade for centuries. As you step onto the farm, you’ll be welcomed by aromatic scents that fill the air—cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, and vanilla are just a few of the spices that grow in abundance here.

During your guided tour, you will:

  • Learn about the origins of various spices and their significance in Zanzibari culture.
  • Participate in harvesting some of the spices, getting a hands-on experience that you won’t forget.
  • Indulge in a spice-infused lunch that highlights the flavors of the island.

You’ll not only leave with a deeper understanding of Zanzibar’s spice heritage, but also with the chance to purchase some of these exotic spices to take home. Imagine treating your friends and family to the taste of Zanzibar with your very own spice collection!

Fun Fact: The Spice Trade

Did you know that Zanzibar was once the world’s leading producer of cloves? The island’s climate and fertile soil create the perfect environment for growing a variety of spices. The spice trade attracted explorers, traders, and settlers from around the globe, which has led to the rich cultural tapestry we see today.


The Allure of Prison Island

A Step Back in Time

Next on our journey is the iconic Prison Island, also known as Changuu Island. Just a short boat ride from Stone Town, this island is steeped in history and offers picturesque views of the Indian Ocean. Originally intended to house rebellious slaves, Prison Island later became a quarantine station for yellow fever patients.

As we arrive, you’ll have the opportunity to:

  • Explore the ruins of the old prison and learn more about its historical significance.
  • Meet the giant tortoises that inhabit the island. These friendly creatures are a delightful highlight of the tour! Some of them are over 100 years old, and you can feed them and take stunning photos.
  • Relax on the beautiful beaches, where you can sunbathe or take a dip in the crystal-clear waters.

A Historical Encounter

While on Prison Island, our knowledgeable guide will share stories of the island’s tumultuous past. You’ll gain insight into the lives of the prisoners and the measures taken to keep the island isolated from the mainland. This unique perspective will deepen your appreciation for Zanzibar’s history and culture.


The Beauty of Stone Town

Walking Through History

After our adventures on Prison Island, we’ll head to Stone Town, a UNESCO World Heritage site that is a must-visit for anyone traveling to Zanzibar. With its narrow winding streets, intricately carved wooden doors, and vibrant markets, Stone Town is a feast for the senses.

During your exploration of Stone Town, you will:

  • Visit the Old Fort, a historical monument that played a significant role in the island’s history.
  • Explore the House of Wonders, an architectural marvel that showcases the heritage of Zanzibar.
  • Wander through the bazaars and local markets to experience the hustle and bustle of daily life. This is the perfect opportunity to pick up some souvenirs!

Culinary Delights

No visit to Stone Town would be complete without indulging in its culinary delights. Whether you’re sampling street food, trying fresh seafood, or enjoying a traditional Zanzibari meal, the flavors of the island will leave you craving more. Our guides will recommend some of the best local eateries to satisfy your hunger after a day full of exploration.
