Nice spice tour - Alfa Zanzibar Tours were really flexible, I arranged the trip late in the evening and confirmed only in the morning. We drove to the spice farm and had a cool tour which ended with fresh coconut and banana decorations (extra cost), which was fun. It was a fine half day, recommended.
