Joan - Tour Guide in Mombasa

Hi. I am Joan and I have lived in Mombasa for more than 15 years and know much about the culture. One distinct thing in Mombasa is it's food. That's why I want you to enjoy the city stories of culture and lifestyle through a fun food tour. I love interacting with new people and hope to meet you soon.

Karibu!

Joan führte uns ein in die authentische Streetfood-Kultur Mombasas und versüßte uns die Tour mit vielen lustigen und spannenden Infos über Land, Leute, Bräuche und Essen. Statt der veranschlagten 2 Stunden waren wir über 5 Stunden unterwegs, quer durch die Stadt mit Stops an unterschiedlichen Streetfood-Locations, die tolles Essen anboten. Die Zeit mit Joan verging wie im Flug.

It was great to experience local food with Joan. She was very knowledgeable about the area and places to get what sort of food depending on your preference. Plus, it was also interesting to have a talk with her during meals and get to know her perspectives on different things.

Ok trip. Fantastic food, less informativ or interesting from a touristic point of view. A lot of walking, few stops.

The tour was amazing. Joan showed us lots of nice local food spots and we also saw lots of old town mombasa, which was definitely a plus. All the food we tried was amazing and she tailored the tour specifically to our likes as well as to what we have and haven't tried before.

Joan was a really great guide- she has a lot of diverse knowledge about Kenyan culture and history which she used to put a lot of the food we tried into context. She was very flexible to the fact that I am vegetarian and have already tried a few Kenyan dishes. She has a friendly relationship with a lot of local businesses, which made the experience more personal. It also meant that when I left a possession at a local tearoom, she called the owner and they found it- after which she came back with me to retrieve it! Joan is friendly and fun and she goes out of her way to accommodate. She was late but more than made up for it.
