Only the best
The extra details that make the trip. One more stop. That hidden corner. Only the best stuff makes it in.
Get ready for a sensory adventure on this full‑day guided tour, with visits to Jozani Chwaka Bay National Park and a spice farm. Begin your tour at Jozani Chwaka Bay National Park. Juma, a local expert guide, says, “this is where you'll be on the lookout for the rare red colobus monkeys. Keep your eyes peeled as you wander through the jungle – you might just spot these elusive primates.” A ranger will also be on hand to help ensure you don't miss any special sightings.
Next, you'll head to the Chako Upcycling Centre and learn about a project supported by the TUI Care Foundation. Here, you'll see how glass bottles are transformed into artisan tableware and lamps. The focus of this project is to empower the local community with its mission to integrate recycling into daily life on the island.
Then, you'll continue to a spice farm where you'll really see why Zanzibar is known as the Spice Island. Discover how crops like vanilla, pepper, and cardamom are cultivated – even tasting them straight from the tree. Juma adds, “the spice farms are community‑based smallholdings where various spices are grown together in one area. These little farms demonstrate centuries of farming know‑how inherited from our forefathers.” Lunch is prepared using spices grown at the farm, and you'll also learn about Zanzibari cooking and the many medicinal properties of the island's spices.
This experience includes a visit to a project supported by the TUI Care Foundation. By developing meaningful connections between tourism and local initiatives, the Foundation helps communities to thrive, empowers young people through education and training, and drives the protection of nature and the environment.
