Exploring Mombasa for the FIRST TIME / Street Food & Old Town

We finally made it to Mombasa on the Kenya coast! Mombasa which is the second largest city in the country after Nairobi has a lot to offer from hotels and restaurants to beaches and tons of different activities. Mombasa is the perfect place to relax or party depending on what kind of person you are!
For our first time in Mombasa, our goal was to explore the city so we simply wanted a place to stay which was affordable. Because we didn`t need a big resort or a beach access, we decided to stay at Bliss Resort which was totally find.
Book a room at Bliss Resort here: booking.tp.st/a8v7JXyw
Otherwise, we truly think that there is no better way to explore a new city than with a local and this is why we decided to let our friends from Travel 4 Purpose to take us around Old Town Mombasa and of course the street food scene.
Book Your Mombasa City Tour or Street Food Experience here: travel4purpose.com/
From Fort Jesus, to the busy market and of course the sugar cane juice, we truly felt like we had the best of both worlds as we learned the history of Mombasa while eating delicious street food items.
Check out our date night at Mombasa's best restaurant called Tamarind.

The market "marikiti", is officially know as McKinnon market, named after the founder of the Imperial British East Africa company that founded British East Africa as a company in 1884. The name "Kenya" was adopted in August 1920, when the current country was formed, and officially became a colony. Mombasa and the coast were a different state known as the "Protectorate of Kenya", which was ruled directly by the Sultan of Zanzibar till 1964, when he ceded the territory to form the Republic of Kenya. One of the conditions was to maintain Islamic courts(they still exist in Kenya), and use of Arabic (taught in schools esp at the coast but rarely used elsewhere, and old Kenya currency and government documents esp from Mombasa, had Arabic versions).

The best time to go to Mombasa (and the coastal areas) is Aug. Hear me our 1 the school holidays aren't that long so everything is fairly priced 2 the Mombasa cold is not on the same level as Nairobi or Mt. Kenya regions 3 the traffic jam isn't as insane 4 but my fave thing, it's not as congested as compared to Dec with cruise ships docking, Kenyans fleeing Nairobi with their fams and it's not wet like April.
