The epicenter of historic Mombasa, and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Fort Jesus sits above the Indian Ocean surrounded by yard-thick (meter-thick) walls. Built by Portuguese colonists in the late 16th century, its design incorporates Renaissance ideas about ideal proportion, while the interior houses a small museum and an exhibition.

The best experience to embrace the coast history
I had the most amazing experience with Antony (Bishamba was unwell), we did a 4h tour of the historical center, including Fort Jesus, the spices market and indoue temple. Anthony knows everything about the city, he answered to all my historic andgeopolitic questions. I felt safe walking with him through the city.

AMAZING TRIP
Humphrey is an amazing guide. He is really passionate about his job and he knows a lot of informations about history. He also took us to the market where we could buy a lot of souvenirs for our family and friends. Haller Park was a beautiful end of the day. We highly recommend this trip.

Amazing tour!!!!
Humphrey was the best! He’s very thoughtful and tailored the experience to my needs. I did this tour by myself, and he made sure to take lots of photos for my social media! Even got expert angles! I 100% recommend this tour to anyone visiting Mombasa. A lot of the things we did I don’t think I could’ve done alone.
