Extensive and fun tour

Published on Nov, 2024

I met Bishamba tour guide at the Fort gate on time. She assisted me completing admission form. She was very knowledgeable about the fort. The tour went at a perfect pace. We proceeded to an excellent tour of the old town. So interesting. We visited artisans at work, different markets. I really appreciated all the sights, sounds, and people. Bishamba's knowledge of the trees and fruits ...exceptional.

Highlight of my visit to Mombasa!

Published on Sep, 2024

Bishamz is an absolutely wonderful tour guide. She is extremely knowledgeable about the history of Fort Jesus, old town, and the markets. She brought the rich history and vibrant culture of the area—both past and present—to life. I highly recommend booking a tour with her!

Great walking tour

Published on Aug, 2024

Bishamba gave us a fantastic tour of Mombasa sights. She explained a huge amount of history at Fort Jesus in a short period of time and showed us the top locations. There isn't much signage so I was glad to have a guide. She then took us through Old Town and the Spice Market and told us about so many different fruits, while weaving in cultural information. It was a fun tour and I highly recommend it.

Excellent Half Day Tour

Published on Jun, 2024

One of the best activities I did in Mombasa. Bishamba was punctual and had good communication ahead of the tour. Bishamba had great knowledge of Fort Jesus. There are also some lovely shops within Fort Jesus. She also helped me to try local street food, which was delicious. Exploring the streets in Old Town and riding in the Tuk Tuk was my favourite part of the tour. I did my tour on a Sunday, which fitted in with my itinerary, but if you want to ensure that all the shops and coffee shops are open, go on a weekday. I would highly recommend choosing Bishamba as your tour guide.

Wonderful guide to explore Mombasa

Published on May, 2024

I had a fantastic time touring Mombasa, all thanks to my brilliant guide, Bishamba ! She was incredibly knowledgeable and wonderfully kind, making the tour feel uniquely tailored to me. We explored the streets and soaked in the rich history of the place, with her sharing fascinating insights that brought the city to life. A definite highlight for me was sampling the sugar cane juice, which was absolutely delightful. Her encouragement to try local foods and drinks really enhanced the experience. What’s more, she went out of her way to show me Mama Ngina Waterfront, a place I hadn’t heard of and would have missed otherwise. This thoughtful gesture made the day even more memorable. I highly recommend this tour if you’re looking for a personal and engaging experience in Mombasa. Bishamba's warmth and expertise transformed a simple outing into a truly memorable adventure. A big thank you for such a wonderful visit!
