  • Travelers visiting a spice farm in Zanzibar are in for a rich, sensory experience that combines history, culture, and nature. These farms, often called “spice tours,” are one of Zanzibar’s most famous attractions. Visitors walk through lush plantations where they can see, smell, and taste a variety of spices, herbs, and tropical fruits. Guides explain how spices such as cloves, nutmeg, cinnamon, black pepper, cardamom, and vanilla are grown, harvested, and used in traditional Zanzibari cooking and medicine. Travelers can touch and smell fresh leaves, bark, and seeds, learning to identify spices by scent. Many farms also demonstrate how coconut is used for food, oil, and crafts. The tour usually ends with a fruit-tasting session, where visitors enjoy fresh pineapple, mango, or jackfruit straight from the trees. Spice farm tours offer a glimpse into Zanzibar’s history as the “Spice Island,” its connection to the Indian Ocean trade, and the daily life of local farmers — making it both. (pass by)
