Awesome Tour around Mombasa

Published on Apr, 2021

I was picked up at my hotel in Diani and taken to downtown Mombasa with other participants. The tour was excellent as guided by Mr Kombo who translated in both French and English. Mr Timothy Katana at Baobab resort was very knowledgeable about the tours offered and he booked for me the tour guided by Mr Kombo. It was an awesome birthday gift. I am truly indebted to this two men. Highly recommended. Tim New York, USA

Awesome tour!

Thanks for the great trip. Was definitely worth it. We had a great tour guide and bus driver. Learned a lot about Mombasa's history and culture.

Ask a local guy to give you a tour

Published on Aug, 2019

You might be able to go around the town, but it's a lot better to have a local citizen to tell you about the history of the city.
