The driver picked us up and dropped us back at the hotel without any issues. However, there was not much added value to seeing the spice farm. The local guide was constantly trying to upsell their products, claiming they were made right on the farm, but I ended up finding the exact same items later that day sold at the main market in Stone Town. The food provided was great, so no complaints there. Things derailed a little bit when we had to wait for an hour for other people to arrive at the meeting point in Stone Town, even though we all were part of the same spice farm tour earlier that day. It felt very disorganized and was a waste of time. After that, they started moving us around without explaining much, and the local guide was just okay. Please note that you pay for the Prison Island tour and the Slave Market separately. That is not much of an issue, but the guide did not add any additional information or contribute in a meaningful way. My main point is that you could easily do this entire tour on your own for a lot cheaper, and without the hassle of being expected to tip multiple times along the way.

The Spice farm tour was excellent. Usman the farm guide was a wealth of knowledge with a great sense of humour. We learnt alot. We were then transferred back to town for the prison Island and Stone town tour. Essentially the young guide Hassan was personable enough but basically just escorted us, he did not really give us much information. he spent a lot of time on his phone. As Australians, tipping is something we don't do much of and we found that we had to tip Usman, Usman's assistant, Hassan, and also the driver which makes the trip cost add up.

We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed the Spice Farm tour and that Usman made the experience both informative and enjoyable with his knowledge and sense of humour. We also appreciate your constructive comments regarding the Stone Town and Prison Island portion of the tour, as well as your observations regarding tipping expectations.

We had an incredible experience exploring Stone Town, visiting Jambo Spice Farm, and taking a trip out to Prison Island. Our main guide was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, bringing the history of Stone Town and Prison Island to life in a really engaging and insightful way. It made the whole experience much more meaningful. At the spice farm, the guide was absolutely amazing, his depth of knowledge about both traditional and commercial production of fruits and spices in the region was impressive. It was fascinating to see, smell, and taste everything firsthand. This tour is a must-do for anyone visiting Zanzibar. Highly recommended! Ps, be ready to tip and have waterproof covers for your phone and wallet if the weather changes.

The tour was very well organized and had no problems. Everything went smoothly. I would like to especially mention the guides. They are fully involved in their work and make you interested in what they are talking about. They are friendly and polite. Most importantly, they know their subject very well and are happy to share their knowledge. Unfortunately, I don’t remember the name of the guide at the Spice Farm, but I am very grateful to him for his time and effort. Mohammed was our second guide. He showed us the island and the city. He is very professional and did a great job. I am very happy we were lucky to meet such a wonderful person.

I’ve done the tour with two friends that I’ve met on the way to Sansibar and I must say it was perfect. We had Hassan as our guide and we couldn’t have been happier. Hassan‘s passion and knowledge made the tour so much more enjoyable. He was extremely friendly, well spoken in English and German and very patient with us ladies stopping at ever shop. 😇 really happy with everything

The tour is split into 3 segments with different guides and drivers so be prepared to tip multiple people if that is your custom. We really enjoyed all the experiences as each guide was very knowledgeable and personable. The Spice tour included a lunch of local food sources and was quite tasty. The history of slavery in Africa, and especially in Zanzibar, is heartbreaking. Fortunately, Solidarity and Acceptance of differences both racially and spiritually is now the norm, and other countries should learn from this
