Old town of Mombasa - Dennis from Afrika Explorers was very informative on the history of of the Fort Jesus. We walked around old town and he explained the history of the buildings and its cultural impact on the city. I would highly recommend this tour.

Short but very insightful - Our guide, Godfrey, contacted us via whatsapp short after we made the booking and that way we managed to arrange our meeting point and timing. We went first to two Hindu temples, including the oldest in Mombasa. Unfortunately of so many house of worships in Mombasa, only those two are open for visitors. Godfrey diligently explained everything we need to know about the customs. From there he took us to a Park and the Elephant Tusks monument. While at Fort Jesus, Godfrey gave us lots of historical background and he showed us places that most tourists didn't go. We also learned how the Portuguese were kicked out by the Arabs and how the Arabs fortify the fort further. Finally, he took us to the old town and the spice market. All in all, a short but very insightful half day tour. Highly recommended.

Magnificent monument - Historic monument. The first Portuguese ships landed here and the rest is history! Did you know an aerial view of it resembles a cross?

Loved the Fort Jesus, as well as the people and the weather. - Your trip to Mombasa City cannot be complete without visiting the Fort Jesus. As UNESCO puts it, it's one of the most outstanding and well preserved examples of 16th Portuguese military fortification and a landmark in the history of this type of construction. Besides history, there are plenty of other things to see and do in and around Fort Jesus. You can explore the narrow streets of Mombasa Old Town, enjoy the beautiful scenery, try out local cuisines, etc. You can also get a bird's view of the ocean right from Fort Jesus.

Fort Jesus - The remote place of Fort Jesus is very unique and satisfying as well where no one can able to get lost

Historical gem - A very interesting tour with a great tour guide - Ahmed. The place is steeped in history and the cultural influences is seen in the architecture

history - fort jesus is a must visit while in mombasa city.very interesting place with alot of history,we had a very informative and knowleagable guide who we were connected to by the tour company in diani which we booked all our tours and transfers with mr jafar +254710239929 we paid 12usd at the entrance which was ok and reasonable to us.

Needs to be curated from the angle of Miji Kenda/Kenyan history. - Great museum but there is a huge gap from the perspective of the history of the Miji Kenda and other local tribes. How did they live before and after, what was their interaction with the Arabs, Portuguese and finally the British. How did they resist the occupation and how did slavery impact on them. There is very little mention of the impact. Curatively, there is nothing on the culture of the local community either which is disappointing.
