Malindi Watamu Full Day Trip Excursion

Visit the main tourist attractions of Malindi and Watamu. Our tour begins after breakfast at our hotel in Malindi, starting with a visit to Malindi Town. This idyllic seaside town is deeply rooted in a colorful history dating back to 1498, when Vasco da Gama first visited the area.

We take a tour to experience the colors and aromas of traditional Africa through the old market area, stalls of spices, piles of pineapples and watermelons, jewelry shops featuring semiprecious stones, and local crafts in wood, soapstone, and batik. One of the most prominent landmarks on the tour of Malindi is the Church of St. Francis Xavier, one of the oldest in East Africa, and it is situated near the Vasco Da Gama Pillar.

You also visit the Juma Mosque and learn about the unfortunate use of the structure for slave trading until the late nineteenth century. A visit to the ruins of Gedi near Watamu takes you to the site of an abandoned coastal town, with intriguing mysteries in the remains of mosques, houses, and other archaeological finds.

Your touring time at Gedi includes tombs, the king’s palace, artifacts, and a sunken court. Enjoy seafood and coastal cuisine lunch in Watamu. Your excursion also includes a glass-bottom boat ride in the Malindi Marine Park, where you look into the depths of the Indian Ocean to observe marine life in a natural setting, and snorkeling can also be arranged.

Alternatively, we could take a canoe trip into the mangrove forest or a cultural tour to the reptile park at Mida Creek, Watamu.
