Celebrate touchdown with a sparkling wine-style picnic breakfast in the bush before returning to camp mid-morning. Please note: This tour is only available on select departures and must be purchased at least 45 days prior to departure. Optional tour may be sold on-site, if available.

Expand your cooking knowledge with an in-depth lesson on Zanzibar’s creative cuisine. We'll visit a home in Stone Town and learn to prepare signature dishes from the region, including biryani (an Indian rice casserole), mseto (a Swahili mung bean porridge), and wali (coconut rice). You’ll learn how to incorporate locally-sourced spices into a meal that you prepare with the assistance of our local host. You'll be able to taste your culinary creations, too, savoring the complex flavors unique to the island.
