Mombasa Old Town & Fort Jesus

Mombasa Old Town & Fort Jesus

Mombasa Island, coast

Kenya Budget-friendly museum

Mombasa’s centuries-old trading heart: a UNESCO-listed Portuguese fort (1593), narrow streets layered with Swahili, Arab and Indian influences, and some of the coast’s best biryani. An easy half-day from the SGR terminus or the ferry, and the natural culture stop between safaris and the beaches.
