All about Africa Travel

This Private Mombasa City Tour shows you some of the best highlights of this colorful old city. You tour will visit the bustling fruit and vegetable market, which has been in operation since colonial days. As you wonder the streets of The Old Arab town, you will see the intricate hand carved doors, and balconies hanging over the narrow streets, unchanged for hundreds of years.

Protecting the harbor stands Fort Jesus which was built by the Portuguese 400 years ago, to protect their interest in east Africa. See how it went from Fort to prison to tourist attraction.

Walk under the famous elephant tusks on Moi Ave, which you probably have seen in those old African adventure movies. Finally we visit the Akamba wood carvers center. Here you can purchase a fine hand carved African memento, that you would have to pay so dearly for back home.

For the photographer, sights and opportunities for great photos abound.

Visit to Fort Jesus in Mombasa. Fort Jesus was built by the Portuguese in 1593. Throughout its tumultuous history, the Fort changed hands no less than nine times between the Portuguese and the Omani Arabs, and was used by the arabs as a slave trading centre where slaves were imprisoned in a small cave before being exported to various countries. The fort was later used as a prison during the early colonial period until 1958, and is now a museum run by the National Museums of Kenya.
