"Zanzibars most authentic experiences"
Mamas Lunch Experience
Cooking is not for everyone. Do you agree? The Mamas Lunch experience offers a guided tour to the market to experience Zanzibar through the local eyes. Once back you will enjoy a ready to eat swahili delicious meal made by the local Mamas. This is a shorter experience but allows you to see Zanzibar and also tastes the most traditional Zanzibari food made by the locals.
