Impact Created: + Supporting a Hidden Gem: this spot is off the beaten path yet a number of villages surround it and rely on the area for income. + Local Employment: the canoe is locally hired and so is the captain, this empowers the local community but is also great for the traveler who can benefit from immense knowledge about the place. + No Engines: the Canoe is powered by human energy (the captain rows and you can if you wish!) which means no engines and no dirty fumes entering the water. + Community: this trips funds will trickle down into the community aiding healthcare, employment and education.

Kongo river canoe ride

Published on Feb, 2025

Big beautiful place of south coast. I highly recommend the canoe ride I've enjoyed every moment of it in a very calm environment Kenya has hidden gems like this one worth visiting

Highly recommend T4P for any activities you may be planning

Published on Jan, 2025

We did two activities with T4P and both were lots of fun. The beaded bracelet workshop was very insightful and gave us a new appreciation for the work that goes into making the bracelets. We had a lot of fun together and learnt a lot. The Kongo river sunset dhow cruise was very relaxing and also educational as we got to learn about the different types of mangroves, birds, trees and much more as we enjoyed the views and the sunset. Highly recommend T4P for any activities you may be planning.

Sunsets, birds and a beautiful river tour

Published on Sep, 2024

Omari was so kind and deeply knowledgeable of the bird species and local history. We really enjoyed our time with him, and both the birds and the sunset on the river were just beautiful. We highly recommend Omari and will always remember our visit.

Beautiful and peaceful experience

Published on Jul, 2024

We had such a beautiful peaceful experience on the canoe tour, and our guide was informative but also let us enjoy the sounds of nature and the quiet moments. The sunset was beautiful too ❤️
