“Taste the Flavors of Zanzibar - From the Farm to the Flame”
Dive into the heart of Zanzibar’s rich culinary culture with our immersive Spice Tour and Swahili Cooking Class. Known as the "Spice Island", Zanzibar is world-famous for its fragrant cloves, vanilla, cinnamon, and other exotic spices that have shaped global trade - and local cuisine - for centuries.
With Memorable Tours and Safaris, you don’t just visit a spice farm - you touch, taste, and cook with the very ingredients that make Zanzibar a food lover’s paradise.

Part 1: Spice Farm Tour (Guided)
Walk through a lush organic spice plantation just outside Stone Town or in the countryside, where you will:
• Smell and taste fresh cloves, cardamom, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, turmeric, and more
• Watch coconut tree climbers and taste fresh coconut water
• Learn how locals use spices in medicine, cosmetics, and food
• Sample seasonal tropical fruits: jackfruit, mango, passionfruit, starfruit, and more
• Great photo opportunities with spice crowns and natural souvenirs
Your knowledgeable local guide will explain the origin, use, and cultural significance of each spice.

Part 2: Swahili Cooking Class (Hands-On)
After your spice walk, head to a local kitchen (either at the farm or in a traditional Swahili home), where a Swahili chef will guide you through:
Preparing authentic dishes like:
• Zanzibar biryani or pilau (spiced rice)
• Coconut curry (chicken, fish, or vegetarian)
• Urojo (Zanzibar soup/street food)
• Chapati, coconut chutney, or fried plantains
• Learn to make Zanzibar-style juice or spiced tea
