Tanzania
Community run spice farm in Kizimbani. We chose this one over the larger farm run by the government in the same area.
The tour was very informative and the guide spoke English very vell.
Entrance fee including tour with guide and fruit tasting in the end is tip based. The tour itself took about 1.5 hours.
We organized our own transport from Stone Town to the Spice Farm, where the driver waited for us and then from here to Nungwi. We asked around in Stone Town: $40 for the whole trip including entrance fee for two persons with tour operator in the Old German Fort. 70.000 TSh for 2 persons including entrance fee with official taxi and 50.000 TSh with unofficial taxi (no taxi sign in top).
We don't have any photos of this place yet.
Why? By checking in after you’ve visited a place you let others know this place is still functional. You can also add or correct any information.
It's possible to reach the farm from stonetown with Dalla Dalla: Number 120 goes there directly (it's not running as frequently as the other numbers though, you may need to wait a while). Alternatively can take the number 511, get of at the junction and walk 30 min. 600 shillings per person one way.
It's not tip based anymore, they asked for entrance fee plus guide fee. We negotiated down to 15.000 shillings for entrance and tour for two people...
Also there is no official entrance or office, just some guys hanging around in the parking, so first we considered it to be a scam.
In the end the tour was very nice and informative and well worth it.
They sell spices and coffee there with are totally overpriced.
We arrived it by public transportation (dalla dalla) from ububu for 1000 ts p.p. The tour was great with a lot of informations about spices and healthplants. They can do it in german, french, spanish, italian, polnish and of cours in english. The tour is now for free but tip based. We can highly recommand it!
