Zanzibar Spice Tour is an exploration of the island's fragrant spice farms that unveils its history, culture, and the scents that have shaped its identity. This immersive journey takes you through lush plantations where cloves, vanilla, nutmeg, and other spices flourish in abundance.
As you step into the heart of the spice farms, you're enveloped in a symphony of aromas that evoke the island's vibrant past as a major player in the global spice trade. Our Knowledgeable Zanzibar Spice Tour Guide share the stories of Zanzibar's spice-rich history, highlighting its pivotal role in connecting cultures through its sought-after flavours.
Our guide took you around their farm and showed us at least a dozen different spices including cinnamon, all colours of pepper, nutmeg, turmeric, chilis, vanilla, mint, and curry leaves. Turns out that most of the spices grown on Zanzibar are not indigenous to the island. Back in the days, spices from all over the world were brought to Zanzibar as it was a central trading hub in the old world and had a climate conducive to growing the many spices that were in demand.
During this Spice Tour Zanzibar, you may also have the opportunity to get a piece of body art made on you. This is carried out by using quick-drying Indian ink, instead of henna, which takes longer to dry. You could also see a coconut climber at work, among various other unique scenes that can only be experienced in a spice plantation.
