Visiting the spices farm was pleasant and interesting. Our guide Ibrahim « Latutu » was kind and entertaining. We really spend a good time and recommend the tour for everyone.

I found this tour to be very interesting. The guide would crumble leaves and have you guess what spice you'd be learning about. I liked that interaction. I expected a field with rows of spices but it's not like that. I found that interesting! The guides helper made me a pretty purse, ring, necklace, and crown of palms and flowers; loved it! The guy climbing the coconut tree and then us all drinking from our individual coconut was just ok. There was the opportunity to buy spices and fruits to eat. Monkeys were playing in the forest. They were cute. Overall a good tour!

We booked the private spice farm tour woth abdi tours and were very happy. Transport worked very well and was on time. The driver, Hussein, was very friendly. The jambo spice farm whoch we visited is a great opportunity to see the local work with spices. As the tour and communication with abdi worked so well, we booked another tour direcrly with him, which we could design to our liking. Would totally recommend.
