The spice tour is a perfect opportunity to learn about the plants of fruits and spices you use in the kitchen. The tour guides are knowledgeable and friendly. You will pay entrance fee (10000 tzs per person), and then the guide brings you to various spots where you can buy products: - parfume shop - spices shop - magnets shop These were still okay because you have the choice to not buy. But there will be also palm climbers making small show for you, and a guy letting you taste fruits. These plus the guide expect tip because they claim that they don't get a share from the entrance fee. They will stand in front of you and pressure you to tip them and then swear in Swahili when the tip doesn't satisfy them. It would be much better experience if the entrance fee would be higher and cover the personal. We left with mixed feelings.

My friends and I learned so much during this tour. The guys were awesomely in their character. From the explanation to the demonstration, we were flabbergasted 😆. I was this year old when I found out how multifaceted I he cinnamon plant is. The leaves, the stem, the roots are all useful in so many ways. We drank coconut juice with lemon against our flu. And we rubbed cinnamon coconut oil around our nose and lemongrass on our body against mosquitoes🦟 . Do not hesitate to do this tour specifically after which you can buy perfumes and spices. Big love ❤️ for Big body spice farm.

Nice experience, definitely worth a couple hours of your time while you visit Zanzibar. The guides were fun, friendly, spoke English, and randomly chatted about WWE pro wrestling 😂

Learnt about various: - Spices - Fruits - Herbal Medication Friendly tour guides and overall a place worth experiencing once.

I liked the place and it was interesting learning about different spices Omar was our tour guide he was telling us about each spice and what they do to you it was nice smelling each spice like cinnamon and vanilla also rashid who was very kind and gave us free gifts like hats rings and neck ties also there was a man who gave us coconut Water which was delicious I loved smelling and learning about spices I would recommend for you too come

Very good tour with a friendly guide. No enterence fee, so they make money only from tips and from the products that they sell. Our children loved it.

So different than what we expected, but absolutely worth a visit! Very interesting, entertaining and insightful. We bought lovely spices and spiced coffee and tea, which is supporting the local community. The fruit tasting afterwards was also tasty and interesting.

The tour was surprisingly interesting. Our tour guide Chikito was very engaging, we saw, smelled, touched,and tasted many things and learned a lot about spices, fruits, trees and plants. My expectations were low, but the outcome was excellent. I don't was to spoil any surprises. It was very rewarding and they really earn their tips. I recommend this HIGHLY.

We loved the place. The entrance was free; however, tipping is recommended. It is good to buy some spices to support the local community. Our guide spoke English very well.

The spices grown here will blow your mind...i loved it...

The Experience was good. You learn about the various spices and fruits grown in Zanzibar. The Guides were professional and made the tour interesting. At the end of the tour you get to buy some spices and perfumes. The Fruit Platter after the walk gives a happy ending to the tour.

Awesome place and friendly people with lots of plants..yusuf was a good guide.

Nice trip. Lots of interesting facts.

Nice visit. Was really good.

We learned alot about spices there origin.Our tour guide was amazing and the locala are super friendly.

I enjoyed the tour a lot. So many spices and the fruit tasting was magnificent

Spice Tour. It's fun. It was nice to have a tour where people could speak Korean.

Great experience! Guides very helpful and speak good English! Spices were amazing

Tourist trap, would not recommend. We saw some interesting plants and spices, wich is nice (for that i give 2 stars), but not a good experience at all. Main focus is to get as much money as possible out of the tourists pockets. The guide barely speaks english, knows her wikipedia text by haert, but no real communication possible, a pitty. She had an "assistent" to show us the fruits she was talking about. He had no added value at all, but he was there just for the tip. Some guy suddenly starts chopping coconuts and climbs a tree, wich you have to pay for of course. They try to sell you all kind of stuff during the tour: spices, but also perfume, clothes, etc. Just really not a pleasant vibe.

Excellent knowledge of the spices, tour guides language were above average and just an overall wodderful experience!

Very nice and interesting visit. Products presented at the end are of good quality and not forced to be bought. I'd give a +1 on the advice of carrying shillings instead of dollars for the tips to the few guides you'll get

Good experience as always. Guide will take on a spice farm tour and will show spice trees, its benefits, etc.

Great spice farm. Wonderful people and experience. They have a lot of spices and I would also recommend taking the Cooking Class!

Super exited so see different spice plants. I had wondered what vanilla looked like before now

The place was very heavenly and peaceful, the people are so welcoming, kind and friendly. Singing is in the air! The tour was amazing, the home made perfumes smell really good and the fruits are so delicious. You can buy from a small spices shop and a souvenir shop and the prices are all reasonable and negotiable!

Very best farm with knowledgeble guides make your Spice tour so easy.

Good overview of different plants for production of spices and fruits. Friendly motivated team guiding throughout the farm. Better to have local currency in small banknotes are welcome for tipping several persons. Total of 5 to 10 dollars would be highly appreciated. There is a possibility to buy spices and oils from local production. Prices are generally higher than in the city (2-5 dollars).

Ok you see this advertised every and I thought it was a tourist trap. WOW!!!!! I was wrong. I had a blast learning new plants, uses of spices and history of how it was brought to Zanzibar. Very entertaining crew that gave the tour. Price includes a great local meal with spices I saw on the tour.Very interactive tour. Very worthwhile trip. Highly recommend to any who come to Zanzibar. They also have scented oils, soap, clothing, and spices for sale after the tour. Also they have a selection of fruit to taste test after your meal.

It's a great place as a tourist, but it's only a 'show' farm, no real plantation. We did not pay for an entrance fee but gave tips to our guides and bought some spices.

the day that we went there was a lovely day was spectacular day we learned concerning the spices how are growing up and to know where are they coming from we saw many spices like cinnamon,cardamom,vanilla,cloves,black pepper and so on about the tour guide was very knowledgeable and very jovial i prefer you to visit to the spice farm which is big body spice farm thanks.
