Travellers1–12 guests
Tour typeCity & beach
A short break that combines Mombasa's centuries of history with relaxed days on the beaches of Nyali, just north of the city.
Why go
Mombasa is Kenya's oldest city. Fort Jesus, built by the Portuguese in the 1590s, and the narrow streets of the Old Town tell a story of traders, sultans and explorers, while Nyali offers wide sandy beaches and good family hotels.
How the trip runs
After arrival you check in to a Nyali beach resort. One day is spent on a guided tour of Fort Jesus and the Old Town, and on another evening you board a dhow for a sunset cruise around the harbour. The rest of the time is free for the beach.
Good to know
Mombasa is reachable by flight or by the SGR train from Nairobi, which takes around six hours.
