5.00A special thanks to Anthony who was an excellent guide. He also showed mastery and expertise in the history of Mombasa and gave a thorough explanation of everywhere we visited. He was also flexible to accommodate additional requests based on where I thought would interest me the most. It was a short trip to Mombasa but Anthony made it worthwhile and make me want to come back.
Great tour!
