This tour is a must! Our tour guide and cook was fabulous! Delivery food and very well organised, kudos!

A must do tour! Amazing experience starting with the local market tour, then learning a lot about the spice farms and get a chance to taste everything. Our tour guides were amazing! We cooked together a Swahili dish using everything we bought from the local market and the spices from the farm. Unbeatable experience!

No frills, genuine experience

I loved that this was a no frills but genuine experience. We cooked like locals, preparing food on the floor and on coals. Foid was delicious. The spice farm was lovely and we had fun guides. The vehicle was considerable and safe. The trip to the markets was made fun with our local guide. Overall, really smooth!

Cooking day

This was a nice gateway activity to do with friends we cooked at a local family home and we all ate together. Worth it and we will return again
