Why This Zanzibar Spice Tour Is Different

Not every spice tour offers the same experience. Many tours visit small demonstration gardens created specifically for tourists. Our tour takes you somewhere much more authentic. You'll spend time on a working family spice farm where farming is still part of everyday life. The spices you see are harvested, dried and used - not simply displayed

Cook Traditional Zanzibari Food With a Local Family

One of the highlights of the day comes after the plantation walk.

You'll be welcomed into a local family setting where you'll learn how traditional Zanzibari meals are prepared.

Together you'll cook up to four authentic dishes, learning how local spices are layered to create the rich flavours Zanzibar is famous for.

Depending on the day and seasonal ingredients, you may prepare dishes such as:

• Pilau rice

• Coconut bean curry

• Chapati

• Fresh vegetable dishes

• Traditional sauces

• Spiced tea

Afterwards everyone sits together and enjoys lunch.

For many guests, this shared meal becomes their favourite memory of the day.
