Enjoy a day in Zanzibar that blends history, nature, and local flavor. Begin with a short boat ride from Stone Town to Prison Island, home to giant Aldabra tortoises, some over a century old. Explore the island’s historic ruins, originally built as a quarantine station, and relax on its white sandy beach—ideal for swimming, snorkeling, or soaking up the sun in clear, calm waters. Later, visit a spice plantation and walk through fragrant fields where cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla, cardamom, and black pepper grow. Learn how these spices earned Zanzibar its name as the “Spice Island,” and take part in hands-on experiences like climbing a coconut palm with your guide. Wrap up the tour with a cup of freshly brewed spice tea, a refreshing way to taste the island’s rich heritage.
