From our family to yours

A working spice farm you can walk into

KV Spice Farm is a small family farm on the edge of Jambiani. For two generations we have grown the spices Zanzibar is famous for — and we love showing visitors how they really grow, long before they reach a jar.

Every tour is guided by one of the family. We keep groups small, walk slowly and let you smell, taste and touch everything along the way — from a cinnamon branch to a fresh vanilla pod.
