A tour of one of Zanzibar’s Spice Farms is a must do on the island. During a walking tour through the farm, guests will be shown and explained each and every spice one can find in Zanzibar. After being fully packed with knowledge, our guests get time to buy spices, soaps and cremes which are all handmade by the community within the farm and can enjoy a traditional weaving class. We offer this tour as a half day trip, in combination with Stone Town (Stone Town served on Spices) or Jozani Forest & Butterfly Center (Fauna and Flora served on Spices).

On this half day tour, the guests will get the chance to see the typical village life of Zanzibar and the turtle sanctuary in Nungwi. The guests will be taken to all the places where the real and normal life of a typical Zanzibarian happens. What they do with their hands is incredible.

After heading, with a dhow, from Kendwa to the stunning Mnemba Atoll – and with every possibility of seeing dolphins along the way, our guests will stop at Mnemba Kitchwani Reef and at Coral Gardens for snorkeling. This amazing reef with steep slopes offers some great under water topography and a chance to see amazing corals and a lot of different species of fish. A snorkel guide will also be in the water pointing out all of the little camouflage and the tricks most people’s eyes miss. At the end of the trip our guests will enjoy a mouthwatering lunch and relax on the beautiful secluded beach of Muyuni Beach.

Visit the Seaweed Center to learn about Seaweed farming which is the second biggest industry on the island. Located in Paje, this social enterprise creates opportunities for female seaweed farmers to improve their standard of living and engage in economic development activities that benefit the whole community. Depending on the tide it is possible to see how the women harvest their seaweed. You will visit the processing center and factory located in the village. Here you’ll get the rare opportunity to see how the seaweed gets transformed into desirable beauty products like organic soaps and essential oils. We offer this experience as a half day tour or as full day tour combined with the Jozani Forest and Butterfly Center (Zanzibar’s nature and community).
