What you can expect

  • Stop at Kongo Mosque in Kwale, Kenya, where we will meet the guide and walk to the estuary as we exchange pleasantries and receive a short introduction to the trip. Then, meet the captain and board a traditional canoe.
    Sail down the Kongo River, watching the beautiful sunset while leaving the ocean behind, and experience the gorgeous Kongo River estuary, the ever-changing sandy beach, and the great waves.
    The canoe is powered by human energy (the captain rows), which means no engines and no dirty fumes enter the water.
    Not only is this trip very relaxing and serene, but it also has a rich history that the captain will explain as he rows along the mangrove-filled water.
    The trip is great for bird lovers and birdwatchers, as the river attracts over 30 species of birds looking for food.
    Feel free to ask the captain any questions regarding the area.
