Tour Details

We will meet at Forodhani Garden at the designated time to begin our walking tour of Stone Town. This area, the capital and oldest part of Zanzibar, features a mix of Arabian, Indian, Persian, and European influences. You will explore its narrow streets, bustling markets, and significant historical sites, including the Sultan's Palace, while learning about its history related to the slave trade.

After the walking tour, we will travel to a spice plantation for a guided walking tour of a spice farm. Zanzibar is known as the "Spice Island" and is a leading producer of nutmeg, clove, and cinnamon. You will experience the cultivation of spices, herbs, and tropical fruits while being informed about their uses and cultivation methods.

A traditional Swahili lunch at the farm will follow, allowing you to enjoy dishes highlighting the diverse culinary uses of spices.

Lastly, we will take a boat ride to Prison Island, historically a prison for slaves in the 1860s. The island hosts large land tortoises, including those in the Aldabra Giant Tortoise Sanctuary, featuring tortoises over 100 years old. The tour concludes as we return to Stone Town and the meeting point.
