Zanzibar is a treasure trove of local experiences waiting to be discovered. From vibrant markets to traditional spice tours, there is something for everyone to enjoy. At Sweet Beach Zanzibar, we encourage our guests to explore the island’s rich culture and history. Engaging with local artisans and participating in community events can provide a unique insight into everyday life on the island.
One of the must-try experiences is a visit to the spice farms that Zanzibar is famous for. Guests can take guided tours to learn about the various spices grown on the island, including cloves, nutmeg, and cinnamon. These tours often include tastings and the opportunity to purchase fresh spices to take home. This immersive experience not only educates visitors but also supports local farmers and their livelihoods.
Additionally, guests can enjoy traditional Zanzibari cuisine at local restaurants and street food stalls. Sampling dishes like biryani, seafood, and fresh fruit juices is a delightful way to experience the island’s culinary heritage. At Sweet Beach Zanzibar, we are happy to recommend our favorite spots and help arrange excursions to ensure you make the most of your stay.
