Relax and explore

Description

This 5-day journey offers a perfect blend of immersive cultural discovery, aromatic spice plantations, fascinating wildlife encounters, and tranquil beach relaxation.

Next, indulge your senses on a guided Spice Plantation tour, learning about the island’s famous spices — cloves, nutmeg, cinnamon, and more — and how they shaped Zanzibar’s economy and cuisine.
