The Spice Tour is one of the most popular excursions in Zanzibar, the Spice Island. Zanzibar
was one of the world’s leading producers of spices such as clove, nutmeg, and cinnamon.
Tour takes you to an organic farm with a wide variety of plants around the year. You don’t
just see, you also touch, smell, and taste.
Spices and herbs were originally introduced to Zanzibar by Portuguese traders in the 16th
century, brought from their colonies in South America and India.
This tour is a walking tour of a spice farm (shamba). While there, you shall see how the
spices, herbs, and fruits grow and are cultivated. Your tour guide will describe how the crops
can be used.

You will be smelling and tasting spices, herbs, and tropical fruits such as clove, lemongrass,
nutmeg, cinnamon, turmeric, vanilla, coconuts, papaya, chilli, black pepper, jackfruit,
cardamom, cassava, and oranges. After the tour, you will enjoy a traditional Swahili lunch at
the farm. Here is when you can really taste the different ways of using spices. Then the driver will drop you to Jozani Forest

The Jozani Forest is located in the centre of the Jozani-Chwaka Bay National Park, 38 km
Southeast of Stone Town. The forest is a great place to encounter many indigenous varieties
of flora and fauna, including the Zanzibari Red Colobus Monkey.
Other species that you might catch a glimpse of include Blue Sykes’ Monkeys, Bush Pigs,
Aders Duiker Antelopes, Elephant Shrews, Chameleons, and numerous birds and butterflies.
The best time to see the wildlife of Jozani is early in the morning and it is open daily from
07:30 am to 5:00 pm.
Visitors are advised to keep three metres between themselves and any wildlife and asked not
to visit the forest if suffering any cold or flu-like symptoms. The monkeys, though
susceptible to human diseases, have practically no resistance to them.
Jozani has an excellent nature trail and the guides are well trained and informative. A walk
through this impressive flora and fauna is one of the highlights Zanzibar has to offer. At
Jozani, you will also visit the Mangrove swamp and walk around the Mangrove forest.
