Start your day by visiting one of the local spice farms near-by. Zanzibar is well know for its variety of spices. In fact the islands prosperity is built on spice trade! Take a stroll through the farm and gain insights into tropical fruits, spices and rare species of plants. Depending on the season you will see and taste vanilla, cardamom, cinnamon, nutmeg, turmeric, lemon grass, ginger, coriander, and many others. Your guide will also explain more about the origins of each spice. Be sure to touch, smell and taste everything on offer! Afterwards, enjoy a delicious lunch cooked by the women on the farm.

Return to Stone Town for your guided city tour. Stone Town is a vibrant and historical city, where ancient cultures mix with modern life. The life in Stone Town is active and exciting as the inhabitants live their lives in a riot of colors – people cooking food in the alleys, playing bao – a traditional board game on the winding streets, keeping their hens, hanging out on the benches, and tending their shops – an cultural encounter not to be missed.

Your day ends by setting sail on a traditional dhow for a sunset cruise on the Indian Ocean – a truley special and memorable experience. With wind in the sail and a cold drink in your hand you cruise around while the sun casts amber gold and red over the land and sea. Various dinning options are available.

Our all-time favorite Zanzibar Excursion: head out on a full day dhow excursion on the Indian Ocean. Your adventure starts at the shores of Kizimkazi on the southern tip of Zanzibar. After about 1,5-hours sailing and enjoying the sound of the waves, we reach the Pungume – one of Zanzibar’s incredible snorkeling spots. Enjoy the underwater world before we continue to a deserted beach or a near-by sandbank that comes up at low tide with an unparalleled view.

For the rest of the day we will sunbath, swim and relax by the sea.
