What you can expect

  • Discover the best of Zanzibar’s culture, history, and tropical beauty on this full-day tour combining a local Spice Farm, historic Prison Island, and the stunning Nakupenda Sandbank.

    Your experience begins with convenient hotel pickup and a scenic drive to a local Spice Farm. Explore the plantation with a professional local guide and discover why Zanzibar is known as the “Spice Island.” Learn about cloves, cinnamon, vanilla, cardamom, nutmeg, turmeric, and other tropical plants. Depending on the season, you may taste fresh spices and tropical fruits while learning about their traditional uses and cultivation.

    After the Spice Farm experience, continue to Stone Town and take a boat to Prison Island, also known as Changuu Island. Explore the island, learn about its history, and see the famous Aldabra giant tortoises. Enjoy time to walk around the island, take photographs, and discover its beautiful surroundings.

    Next, continue by boat to Nakupenda Sandbank, a spectacular natural sandbank surrounded by crystal-clear turquoise waters. Relax on the white sand, swim, snorkel, and enjoy the peaceful tropical environment.

    You will also enjoy a freshly prepared seafood lunch accompanied by tropical fruits while taking in beautiful views of the Indian Ocean.

    Throughout the tour, your professional local guide and boat crew will assist you and share interesting information about Zanzibar’s culture, history, marine environment, and local way of life.

    After enjoying Nakupenda Sandbank, return by boat to Stone Town and transfer back to your hotel.

    This experience is ideal for travellers who want to combine Zanzibar’s famous spices, history, wildlife, snorkelling, beach relaxation, and delicious local seafood in one memorable day.

    Please note that the sandbank’s appearance and accessibility depend on tides, weather, and sea conditions.
