My friends and I really enjoyed this tour. The guides gave in depth information about all of the plants and we learned so many interesting things. It was a combination of walking trails and looking at plants and sitting and listening to information and watching the process of cooking with the plants and spices. They made it fun and entertaining. If you are interested in plants and spices, I highly recommend this tour.

Perhaps the best experience on our entire trip. Amazingly beautiful and educational. Our driver Juma was super sweet and very punctual. Our guide Alhamisi was amazing and knew how to make it all exciting. Very in depth knowledge of most plants, and even know what to call it in many different languages.

We took this tour with our three young children, ages 6, 4, and 1. It was amazing. The company was easy to communicate with and very professional. We got to see spices growing like vanilla, cardamom, cinnamon, turmeric, nutmeg, peppercorn, and many more. Plus we saw coconuts, pineapples, passion fruit, and star fruit. There was a cooking demonstration of a traditional Zanzibari dish, and a super delicious lunch served. Lunch included fish, but you could opt out of fish if vegetarian. The kids had a great time asking lots of questions. Our guide was very patient with the kids and very informative. I highly recommend this tour for anyone, but especially for families with small children.
