Worth the time and money - Our guide Daudi was excellent. He was very knowledgeable and cared about giving us a great experience. He walked us through the spice farm and did an excellent job touring us around Stone Town. I highly recommend him to anyone who visits Zanzibar.

Spice Farm Tour in zanzibar - The tour was wonderful! The driver, Ali, was friendly and pointed out things on the way to the farm as well. The spice tour guide was also sweet and showed us the plants of many spices we routinely use in eating. There was slight inconsistency in what was included but overall a walk through the spice garden and fruit tasting plus a stop where spices were available to purchase.
