Fort Jesus: Unearth Mombasa's Ancient UNESCO Secrets

Bishamba was wonderful during our tour. She organised several places for us to visit, which we were absolutely fascinated by. Particularly the store and garment production site were impressive and inspiring for what women can do. Additionally, Bishamba was able to give us valuable insights about the construction of Fort Jesus and its historical activities. Thank you again for the effort you made!

We spent some very enjoyable hours in the company of Bishamba, who was a delightful tour guide- very friendly, reliable and knowledgable. It proved very easy to set up our private tour in advance, and equally easy to exchange communications prior to meeting with her. We visited Fort Jesus, Mombasa Old Town, Mombasa market, and more. Terrific!

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.

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!

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.

Well.. well... Honestly, I had a unique moment. I learnt more about our coastal people.. I was able to understand some deep history about coast. It was beautiful ❤️❤️. I will revisit again. The tour guide was awesome and very patient. I loved the visit.

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.

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!

Learnt a few interesting facts but the market but was kind of pointless and not really worth the money

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.
