FAQ's

Do I need to carry anything?

Carry a copy of your passport at all times. A water bottle is advisable to avoid buying single use plastic and it can get pretty warm. Also good walking shoes is a good idea. 

Is the guide able to suggest shops?

Of course, the guides have a lot of knowledge and know where is the best to shop. Ask away.

What time would you recommend doing this tour?

Morning is usually best to avoid hours where it become hot. We’d say 9am – Midday.

T4P created an excellent and well-thought-out itinerary. I was on a short 8-day visit to Mombasa and yet it packed a visit to Mide Creek, a night on a dhow boat, Safari, and Mombasa food tour.

If I have to pick my favourite experience then it has to be either seeing bioluminescence from the “Musafir” dhow boat or the morning canoe with Sijo at Mide Creek.

T4P was very helpful and involved in every aspect of the trip including arranging our VISA and travel documents, Booking accommodation, and local commute.

I can’t recommend T4P enough and will be back soon to Mombasa to relive some of the moments.

Travel4purpose arranged for us (a group of 6) a city tour of Mombasa. We went around with tuktuks and discovered the city with the help of our amazing drivers.
The booking experience, communication and overall professionalism of T4P was outstanding. Our guides on the day were also great, giving us the true local feel of the city. Definitely recommend!

Had an amazing Mombasa food tour with Qamili. She’s a super nice and friendly person. We’ve had several stops to experience the local food and not only was the food very delicious there were also some really nice views she showed me. The tour was organized late afternoon which I think was a very good decision considering the hot temperatures in Mombasa. The tour takes around 2 hours /2,5 hours so there’s no need to rush. I’ve enjoyed it so much and would definitely recommend it.
