Jozani Forest, Spice Farm and Stone Town
- Day trip
- Private
- About 7 hours
- Zanzibar and the Coast, Tanzania
Overview
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.

Getting there and what to know
Pickup and meeting point

What we will advise you on
Send your dates and group size and we answer all four in the itinerary we send back.
The best months for this trip
Wildlife, rainfall and crowds change month by month, and the right answer is different for a migration trip than for a beach week. We will tell you what your dates mean for what you will see.
Weather and what to pack
Temperature, rain and altitude across the parks on your route, and a packing list for the season you are travelling in rather than a generic one.
Flights and how to get here
Which airport to fly into, whether to drive or fly between parks, and how the internal legs fit together. We will say when flying is worth it and when it is not.
Choosing the right lodges
What each lodge or camp is actually like, how far it sits from the gate, and what the difference between the budget, mid-range and luxury options buys you.
