Excellent experience in Mombasa ! - We had a great experience with Humphrey and his driver ! He knows a lot about the city, also knows where to take you to make you feel at ease, and a very good guide ! We also had the opportunity to prepare and share a meal at his home with his wife and child, such a great experience to discover local culture and food. We won’t forget the time we spent together talking about our lives and experiences. 5/5 would highly recommend !

Excellent tour - As a solo traveller, this tour is highly recommended. Humphrey was very knowledgeable about the history and I was able to get a comprehensive insight of the city. I'd be more than happy for his services once again when I have another chance to come back to Mombasa.

Don't lose this chance!!. - Humphrey is an amazing guide in Mombasa. He explains to us about history, culture and society of the city. Many tips about the development of life in Mombasa and how it has changed during the time. He can show the food market with the opportunity to try many fruits and spices. I suggest for anyone that will pass in the city to book and enjoy the tour with Humphrey. You will not regret it.

Repeat tour takers - This is the third tour of Mombasa we've taken with Humphrey - this time we brought our family from Canada. As always, Humphrey is communicative, prompt to arrive well in advance and welcomes you upon arrival, and he tailors the tour to your needs and desires. We had limited time, yet Humphrey was able to accommodate and show us everything Mombasa has to offer. Will continue recommending his tours to others.

Mombasa tour in a safe and friendly way - It was a short but intensive experience and the deserves goes to Humphrey, our guide that allow us to visit the main attractions of Mombasa in a safe way. The most beautiful thing was the visit to Fort Jesus where Humphrey told us its history and the slave trade with a lot of sentiment And emphasis. All the money I sent for this short journey is deserved. I suggest this tour for all people that wants to know more about Mombasa in a safe and friendly way.

Worth every cent of his fee - I appreciate the insight that he provided us with, and the genuine love that he has for his profession, it is highly evident on his face when he explain the history of the place. He then took us into old town Mombasa and the best thing is that he negotiated prices down on the items we wanted in the market even the tok toks. We had a bit of doubt when he approached us for a tour, but I am definitely happy that he did.

Dont waste your money - Very poor tour. Do not waste your money. The guide could hardly speak English. Also rude. If you want poor value for money go ahead and book.
