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.
