Description:

Get off the beaten track and embark on a food adventure on one of the famous “Spice Islands”—Zanzibar. Meet local people, see native farming techniques in action, learn some tips in a cooking lesson, and finally sit down to a tasty lunch as you appreciate this farm-to-table experience.

Begin your off-the-tourist-trail tour by stopping at a local farm to marvel at the extent of the produce they cultivate. In a place considered one of the “Spice Islands,” they have the expected offerings of cinnamon, cardamom, ginger, nutmeg, vanilla, and saffron, but there are also tropical fruits—pineapples, jackfruits, oranges, pomelos, and durians.

Next is a local cassava farm, where you can try your hand at the traditional techniques still employed here before the farmer gives an informative vegetarian cooking lesson that features ingredients from the village. Complete your tour with a sit-down lunch prepared Swahili-style. Using the freshest in-season produce, the menu is forever changing and always delicious.
