What to expect

Set off on an unforgettable Zanzibar journey that blends history, nature, & flavor into one captivating day. Begin with a short boat ride from Stone Town to the iconic Prison Island, home to a sanctuary of giant Aldabra tortoises—some over a century old! Explore the historic ruins of a once-intended quarantine station, now a peaceful relic offering a window into Zanzibar’s colonial past.

Surrounded by turquoise waters & powdery white sands, Prison Island is also a dream for sun-seekers & ocean lovers. Take time to snorkel among tropical fish, enjoy a relaxing swim, or simply soak up the sun on the beach.

Then head inland for a sensory adventure through one of Zanzibar’s lush spice plantations. Guided by local experts stroll through fields rich with cinnamon vanilla nutmeg cardamom & black pepper. Learn how Zanzibar earned its nickname The Spice Island & discover traditional farming techniques passed down for generations. Feeling adventurous? Try climbing a coconut tree with the help of your guide!

Wrap up the day with a warm cup of freshly brewed spice tea—infused with the very flavors you’ve just experienced—offering the perfect taste of Zanzibar’s cultural & culinary heritage.
