Stone Town + Prison Island + Spice Tour

This was one of the best city tours I have done. My guide, Hamsa, was a wealth of history knowledge- embellishing sites with their context and significance. Additionally, his knowledge of the plants at the spice farm was immense. Holistically a day we'll spent and a lot of Zanzibar history learnt. Asante!

Value for money

This tour certainly gives you all you need in one day. It's a long day so value for money. The Spice farm is very interesting but take some tipping money along. The trip to Prison Island is an experience not to be missed. The Stone town walk encompassed everything I wanted. Thank you.

Excellent tour with interesting history

The Spice Farm in Zanzibar is must have. You will see different plants and fruits and taste them during your tour. Just an hour in Stone Town is not enough to get into the culture of the city, however, our guide was really nice and took us in most important places and explained the sad story of slave markets. The Prison Island is very charming where you have a nice views over the ocean. And our 2 years old boy enjoyed really tortoises in the Island.

Thank you Ali!!!

Thanks to Ali we discovered the beauty and secrets of the spice Farm. It was so interesting to see all the diversity of the spices in their natural form that we use on the kitchen Ali is so good, patient and kind. He takes his time to explain and share his knowledge I recommend him at 1000% !
