SPICE TOUR

Zanzibar has earned its reputation over the centuries as the spice island.Its a half day tour that starts with a drive through a profusion of greenery in the countryside,you will be walking on different type of spice plantations-some are cloves,cardamom,cinnamon, black-pepper,turmeric,nutmeg etc.

The tour involves much more than spices and you will also have a chance to see the iodine plant, heena bush, ylang-ylang, the lipstick tree, cocoa , vanilla, cassava, dasheen cocoyam and coffee plantations. The tour also gives you the opportunity to explore the zanzibar richness of mouth-watering tropical seasonal fruits like jack fruit, pineapples, bananas, green coconut (madafu),dourian, love apple(matufaa),rambutun (shoki-shoki),soursop (mabungo)and starfruit (carambola).

The henna tree produces a dye from its crushed leaves used by women to elaborately decorate their hands and feet in delicate patterns.On the tour you’ll have the opportunity to have a body part painted, but by quick drying Indian ink, as henna takes all day to dry.

The guides give detailed descriptions of what the various plants are used for, though not all of them are for food. The leaves of the neem tree were once used as a cure for malaria and indigestion,the iodine tree produces a deep red sap used to fight infection,while the foaming berries of the unimaginatively named soap berry tree were used for centuries as an alternative to soap.

Nowadays it is the only remaining natural forest on Unguja Island where long ago you could find leopards and antelopes and represents a very important refuge for the fauna of the island.  

Jozani still boasts an eclectic Bio-diversity, with many strange and wonderful animals residing in and below the canopy of old giants.

Presently it is the habitat for the Red Colobus Monkeys (Colobus badius kirkii) and the Blue Sykes Monkey. The Red Colobus monkey is one of the most endangered and rarest species in the world and only found in Zanzibar. 

They are very friendly creatures and love to be photographed and can be viewed at close quarters by the help of your guide. The forest is a delight, with a swamp in the middle, and small streams flowing into the ocean.You may also get a glimpse of various butterflies, birds and snakes.

Other interesting features suitable for tourist in the forest include the coastal evergreen bush land, mangrove forest, saline grassland and ground water forest.
