What you can expect

Your adventure begins at the Mombasa Marine National Park, where you’ll board a glass-bottom boat to explore some of Africa’s finest coral gardens. Depending on the day's tides, you’ll dive into the crystal-clear January waters to snorkel alongside sea turtles and schools of tropical fish, or watch the vibrant reef life from the comfort of the deck.

As the afternoon sun mellows, we head to the historic Fort Jesus. Step inside this UNESCO World Heritage Site after dark, guided by the glow of over 500 hand-lit candles. You’ll witness a world-class 3D Sound and Light show where holograms and lasers project the fort’s 500-year history directly onto its ancient coral walls, finishing with a spectacular pyrotechnic display.

The finale of your day takes place on the water aboard the legendary Tamarind Dhow. Sip on a signature 'Dawa' cocktail and as you sail through the moonlit Tudor Creek. It’s a seamless blend of adventure, history, and luxury that shows you the very best of Mombasa in a single, unforgettable day
