Highlight of my visit to Mombasa! - 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!

Great walking tour - 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.

Excellent Half Day Tour - 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.

Wonderful guide to explore Mombasa - 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!

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.

Wonderful day in Momabasa' Old Town - Our walking tour in Mombasa's fascinating old town with Ms Bishamba was the highlight of our stay. She provided the perfect blend of historic and everyday-life knowledge - and yummy street food! She took us to places we would have never been able to find, let alone enter alone. We had so much fun and it felt like taking a stroll with a friend :)
Asante & shukran dear Bishamba!

one of the few historical witnesses of the city - We went through Fort Jesus with a guide. It was quite interesting to learn more about the colonization of the country. The buildings that still exist show the varied history. We were lucky; at the time of our visit, a wedding was being prepared in the courtyard and we were also able to see singing and dancing rehearsals.
