描述

Discover the natural beauty of Jozani Forest and the aromatic world of a spice farm on this guided tour. And learn about the island’s history and culture.
Begin with a pickup from your hotel or designated location and drive through the lush countryside until you arrive at Jozani Forest, the only national park in Zanzibar.

Explore a biodiversity hotspot that is home to the rare and endemic red colobus monkeys, which are often seen leaping gracefully from tree to tree, along with other fascinating species such as Sykes’ monkeys, bush babies, butterflies, and over forty varieties of birds.

Wander through the winding forest trails with a knowledgeable guide and discover an impressive variety of plants, including medicinal herbs used by local healers, towering mahogany and eucalyptus trees, and mangroves that play a crucial role in protecting Zanzibar’s delicate coastal ecosystems.

Learn about the environmental conservation efforts aimed at preserving this priceless natural heritage while walking along the wooden boardwalks that extend through the swampy mangrove forest, offering a close-up view of crabs scuttling across the mud and the unique root systems that allow mangroves to thrive in saltwater environments.

After spending time in the forest, continue to a traditional spice farm, where you will step into the heart of what earned Zanzibar its nickname, the “Spice Island.” Let the aromas of cloves, cinnamon, cardamom, vanilla, nutmeg, and black pepper fill the air while your guide takes you on a sensory exploration of the farm, inviting you to touch, taste, and smell the various spices and tropical fruits that are grown here.

See how the spices are cultivated and learn about their culinary and medicinal uses, as well as their historical importance in the global spice trade that once made Zanzibar a vital hub for merchants and traders from Arabia, India, and Europe. Sample fresh seasonal fruits such as mangoes, pineapples, starfruit, and bananas, and watch demonstrations on how spices like cloves and cinnamon are harvested, dried, and prepared.

Enjoy an interactive tour with riddles, tasting sessions, and fun challenges that allow you to test your knowledge of flavors and aromas. Beyond the natural and culinary delights, the spice tour also offers cultural immersion as you interact with local farmers and gain insight into the daily lives of rural communities who depend on spices for their livelihoods.
Throughout the day, your professional guide will share stories and historical background, weaving together the threads of Zanzibar’s heritage, from its natural wonders to its cultural and economic significance, ensuring that you not only enjoy the sights and scents but also leave with a deeper understanding of the island.

Finally, the tour concludes with a comfortable drive back to your hotel or chosen drop-off point, leaving you with lasting memories of the vibrant wildlife of Jozani, the intoxicating scents and tastes of the spice farm, and the warm hospitality of the Zanzibari people.
