Friendly, knowledgeable and informative Tour Guides will escort you on a walking tour in the spice farms, picking bunches of leaves, fruit and twigs from bushes and trees, inviting you to smell or taste them to guess what they are.

This is a half-day tour through wete old road to Mtambwe village where you can see a variety of spices before visiting the oil distillery factory located 4 kilometers from Chake Chake Town Centre at Wawi village.
