Stone Town to Matemwe

In the midst of history Pick up at airport and transfer to The Seyyida Hotel  in the heart of Stone Town. Briefing and test of bicycles. 18.00 Roof top dinner at Emerson Spice . Best roof top in town where you will enjoy 270 degrees sea view accompanied by the call for prayers and the tingling sound from the Shiva temple below. Enjoy the views of Stone Town while being served a 5  course cross kitchen tasting menu.  Drinks excluded ( sunset and drinks around 18, dinner starts 19). The Seyyida Hotel is your place for the night. With a design mix of many cultures  and a stunning roof top overlooking the Indian Ocean this is a favorite spot of ours. And we know you will love it too.

Breakfast/ Dinner

Spice tour and mangroves To avoid the erratic traffic in Zanzibar city, you embark the local bus. After a 20 min you arrive to the spice farm area. Then some easy and beautiful cycling ( 3 km) to get to our favorite and pioneering Spice Farm run by Abeids Family. There you will be able to see, smell and taste all the fruit and spices in seasons as you walk around the grounds to discover. Some of them are ginger, cinnamon, vanilla, cardamom, lemon grass, black/green pepper, mangos, bananas, cloves and lots of other spices you have only seen dry on the shelf before. While you are doing the tour the women will prepare a tasty lunch with spices, fruit and vegetables from their farm. With filled belly you move on, mostly downhill and flat luckily, another 6 km before arriving to Chuini. You arrive early enough to have time to enjoy the peaceful family owned Mangrove Lodge, its lush garden, pool and the mangroves. Mangrove Lodge is an Eco-lodge surrounded by a tropical garden. As it is on the West coast you have chance to witness a colourful Indian Ocean sunset. www.mangrovelodge.com

Breakfast, lunch at the farm and dinner. Excl.drinks

A long stretch north This day you will probably fill in your legs as it is 53 km to Nungwi. But it can be cured with a fruit smoothie upon arrival- or even a swim. And then there is always the local buses to catch along the route should you wish. After some hours cycling and exploring you will come to Mkokotoni, a small untouched fishing village. It’s close to the island Tumbatu so the boats over runs from here. Quite spectacular if you manage to see one. Nungwi is the most tourist developed beach on Zanzibar. Many places to visit, many roof top sunsets to see. Or you just stay at Flame Tree Cottages and enjoy the tranquility. Your choice! Flame Tree Cottages have a quite vast plot with few enough cottages to offer privacy. You will have your own veranda where breakfast is served and the swimming can take place in the ocean just outside or the refreshing pool. Should you want some party it is a mere 10 min walk away. www.flametreecottages.com

Snorkeling at the world famous Mnemba Atoll Going South today- 21 km. A bit inland and then out to the North East coast to go snorkelling by the world famous Mnemba atoll. Unbelievably clear blue water. The reefs surrounding the island have colourful coral and fish. Sometimes the dolphins are arounds so fingers crossed. After the snorkeling we enjoy lunch at one of the best restaurant on Zanzibar- Zanzibar Retreat. Their Seafood ravioli with limoncello sauce is to ( almost) die for
