Spice Islands Cruise

A six night stay on the Kenya coast and seven nights aboard M.S. Royal Star make this cruise holiday the perfect combination of beachside relaxation and island hopping adventure.

Spice Islands Cruise

Take time to unwind, or experience the wildlife of Africa on an optional safari, before cruising to spice-scented islands. You’ll be entranced by exotic Zanzibar, overwhelmed by the spectacular coral reefs and glorious landscapes of Mayotte and, with a day on Madagascar’s ‘perfumed island’ of Nosy Bé, there may be time for a visit to tiny Nosy Komba, where you could make friends with the fascinating black lemur. You cruise back to Mombasa via the 'scented isle' of Anjouan.
