This is the fullest single day on the island. It starts early at Jozani Chwaka Bay for the red colobus and the forest walk.

From there to a working spice farm, where the growers show you the plants, let you taste what comes off them and explain what each is used for in a Zanzibari kitchen. Lunch is spiced, cooked on the farm, with tropical fruit.

The afternoon is Stone Town on foot: the Old Fort and House of Wonders, the Sultan's palace, the former slave market site, Darajani market and the lanes in between.
