Zanzibar spice farm walk and Swahili cooking class with hotel pickup, fruit tasting, and aromatic spice sampling in 5 hours.
“Great experience! Big farm with many different kinds of spices. We liked how to tour guide always made us guess the spices and all about them. The cooking class was interesting, but we felt a bit unwanted. The ladies showed us how to prepare the dishes, but did not seem interested in speaking to us. Would be better to have a shared cooking class rather than private. At each single stop they've always asked us for tips which was annoying. Overall we recommend the tour.”
