Activity itinerary

Your "Swahili Spice Experience" begins with a guided tour of one of Zanzibar's most famous spice farms. Trained guides will show you how the spices grow and invite you to guess what you are seeing. They will explain the processes the spices undergo before they are ready for sale at the market. Engage your senses—smell and taste pepper, cinnamon, vanilla, nutmeg, and much more. A visit to a Zanzibari spice merchant gives you the chance to buy spices to take home; you won't find them any fresher. "Arnoldi's on the Cliff" (rated 5 stars on Google) offers a stunning setting overlooking the Indian Ocean. Your Spice Experience concludes here with a culinary highlight. Embark on a culinary journey through Swahili cuisine and discover many of the spices you just saw growing on bushes or trees. For dessert, enjoy Zanzibari *Kalimati*—a sweet, fluffy delight that ensures you won't forget this day. "Spice Coffee" or "Spice Tea" is, of course, included in the price. Do you have a hire car or prefer to make your own way there? Book the affordable "Self-Drive" option—featuring the same programme described above, but with you driving yourself. .
