Mombasa City Tour - Fort Jesus, Old Town, Spice Town & Craft

There is some walking involved on uneven streets but nothing too strenuous. Just be sure to wear comfortable walking shoes. It was so fascinating to learn the history of Fort Jesus. Our guide, Moses, was great at pointing out the different things at the fort. He then led us on a walking tour of the Old Town, the open air markets & we got to go to the spice market.

Jag hämtades på mitt hotell och skjutsades till en guide i centrala Mombasa. Denne extremt trevlige och kunnige guide visade mig runt i stan. Tack vare honom blev det ett bra stadsbesök. Därefter hämtades jag av samme chaufför som körde mig hem till hotellet igen. Jag är mycket nöjd eftersom jag fick se exakt det jag ville i Mombasa. Det var skönt att ha en guide, för som ensam, vit kvinna hade jag inte känt mig helt bekväm.

It was a good trip to Mombasa where a guide showed us around Fort Jesus, Old Town and Spice Market and answered the questions we had. Then we drove to the iconic bumps, followed by a Hindu temple, where a guide told a little about the temple. Finally, we drove out to see how characters etc. are made of different wood and got some stuff shopping. All in all, we got what we had expected and got to see Mombasa.
