Itinerario
Inizia la giornata con il nostro autista locale di fiducia, che ti verrà a prendere al tuo hotel la mattina presto. Mentre viaggi attraverso lo splendido paesaggio costiero, goditi la vista di proprietà affascinanti e lussureggianti piantagioni di palme. Arrivando intorno alle 8:00, salirai a bordo di una barca (il tipo dipende dalle prenotazioni del giorno) per navigare lungo lo splendido Canale Wasini. La giornata offre il perfetto equilibrio tra relax ed esplorazione, a partire dallo snorkeling al Kisite-Mpunguti Marine Park. Qui, avrai la possibilità di avvistare delfini (95% di possibilità), vita marina vivace e forse anche tartarughe marine!
Dopo aver goduto del vivace mondo sottomarino, faremo un breve tour del villaggio di Mkwiro sull'isola di Wasini. Questa è un'opportunità per conoscere la vita sull'isola e connettersi con la comunità. Se hai piccole donazioni come libri, assorbenti igienici o vestiti usati delicatamente, saranno accolti calorosamente dalle famiglie locali. Dopo la visita del villaggio, torniamo a Shimoni per un delizioso pranzo in Swahili. Il pasto è preparato da donne locali, dandovi la possibilità di sostenere il loro lavoro mentre indulgendo nei ricchi sapori dell'autentica cucina costiera.
Infine, visiterai le grotte degli schiavi di Shimoni, un sito storico gestito dalla comunità. Qui, imparerai a conoscere la storia oscura della tratta degli schiavi e la sua abolizione, sostenendo al contempo una significativa iniziativa locale. Unendoti a questo tour, non solo godi di un'esperienza memorabile, ma contribuisci anche direttamente alle comunità di Wasini e Shimoni.

100% recommend going snorkelling with Omar and his team. Everything was very simple and professional from the first point of contact. Communication was great. Our pick-up driver, Mohammed was punctual and friendly and told us lots about the local area as we drove to the snorkelling meeting spot. Omar and Hussain we amazing on the day too. Very informative and gave us a full briefing before heading out on the boat. I have never felt so safe on a snorkelling trip! Usually we're just told to jump in and left to it, but Omar and Hussain were with us in the water, constantly ensuring our safety but not encroaching on our personal time or space as a family. They even had a Go-Pro and took videos of us in the water. If there was something we saw that we liked, they captured it for us so we didn't need to worry about using phones or cameras, just enjoying the experience in real time. Omar sent all the videos to us after the trip - amazing! We had the pleasure of visiting a local village which I would urge everyone to do. Seeing real Kenyan village life is extremely humbling and this particular village is very special to Omar, it's clear to see his passion for wanting to make a difference here. If you are going on this trip, please think about taking something small, be it sweets, books, shoes or simple clothing (new or used) for the children and community. It will warm your heart to see how happy these simple things make them. After the trip we all had lunch together and talked about our adventures. The food was plentiful and tasty. It was a great day all round. Thanks again Omar. I repeat... 100% recommend!
Thank you for the absolutely special and extraordinary day me and my friends had in the Marine National Park!! :) We had the opportunity to visit there almost the whole day and really was a compared low price, me and my friends are students and could afford, so its approved from that point too. :) Special thanks are going to Omar, we had such a great funny talk and I learned so much from him, so thank you Omar that you had us on your boat. :) At the end of the trip everybody was singing songs in the languages of all the visitors, that was such a funny place on the boat there. :D We were not too many people, had an easy time chatting with everyone during the ride. And then everybody was so excited when we first time saw the dolphins, so beautiful creatures swimmimg towards us. It was the first time ever I saw one, just magical, so really thankfull to everybody involved. I hope to come again someday and can truely recomment to everybody, you will have a great experience and just the best conversations there!

Had a fantastic day with Omar and another solo traveler! Not only did we find the dolphins he filmed a great underwater video for us and managed to do the same with a sea turtle. Additionally he’s so nice, welcoming, and really knowledgeable and answered all our hard questions. His mom also made us lunch which was some of the best food I’ve had in Kenya so far.

We really loved this tour. We had plenty of time to snorkel and guides (Omar & Ali) were great at ensuring that anyone who was new to snorkelling or who was not the most confident of swimmers were comfortable & felt safe. Snorkelling highlights included seeing squid, octopus, puffer fish and a green turtle. The visit to Wasini Island was a deeply poignant experience. Lunch was amazing! So much beautiful food prepared by Omar’s mum. Omar and Ali were friendly, open and very informative. I’d 100% recommend this trip. Thank you Omar and Ali

Thank you for such a beautiful and heartfelt review. We’re absolutely thrilled that you loved the tour and felt you had plenty of time to truly enjoy the snorkeling experience. At Safe Adventures Safaris, we believe the ocean should never feel rushed it should feel safe, exciting, and unforgettable. Omar and Ali will be so happy to know their efforts made a difference, especially in ensuring that beginners and less confident swimmers felt comfortable and supported. Creating that sense of safety and encouragement is something they genuinely care about. What incredible snorkeling highlights squid, octopus, puffer fish, and even a green turtle! Encounters like those are what make the reef so magical. We also appreciate your words about Wasini Island. It truly is a place that carries deep history and emotion, and we’re glad the experience resonated with you. And of course, Mama will be overjoyed to hear that you loved the lunch! Sharing her cooking is one of the most special parts of the day for our family. Thank you for the 100% recommendation and thank you for choosing to spend your day with us. We hope to welcome you back again for another ocean adventure soon.
We had a great experience, offered by a real local agency that is caring for its clients. From flow to end, everything was perfect! We were treated to our private boat, two great guides for a snorkeling that lasted 1h30 with a lot to see (octopus, squid, fish of all kinds and sea turtles!) We swam to a beautiful sandbar where a very nice fruit platter was offered! Then the visit to Wasini Island and the caves were very interesting! Not to mention the great Swahili meal we were able to enjoy at the end of the experience! Book without hesitation, even if you are new to snorkeling!
Merci beaucoup pour ce superbe retour ! Nous sommes ravis de savoir que vous avez vécu une expérience mémorable avec Safe Adventures Safaris. Du début à la fin, notre objectif est toujours de faire en sorte que nos invités se sentent pris en charge et profitent pleinement de chaque moment — et vos mots montrent que nous avons atteint cet objectif. Nous sommes heureux que vous ayez apprécié votre bateau privé et le snorkeling guidé par nos deux super guides, avec toutes les merveilles sous-marines comme les poulpes, calamars, poissons et même les tortues de mer ! Le banc de sable et le plateau de fruits font toujours partie des moments magiques que nous adorons partager avec nos invités. La visite de l’île de Wasini et des grottes est un voyage dans l’histoire et la culture que nous aimons faire découvrir, et nous sommes ravis que cela vous ait marqué. Et bien sûr, Mama sera enchantée de savoir que vous avez apprécié le délicieux repas swahili préparé à la fin de l’expérience ! Merci de recommander notre expérience, même aux débutants en snorkeling ! Nous serions ravis de vous accueillir à nouveau pour une autre aventure inoubliable.
A wonderful excursion! Great communication. Pick up and drop off at our hotel in Tiwi. The entire team was extremely kind and informative. We saw a lot of dolphins and the snorkeling was great. Our guide pointed out octopus, squid, etc. I believe lunch was cooked and served by Omar’s mother. It was delicious and featured many local foods. The tour of the slave caves was very interesting and shined a light on a very dark time in Kenya’s history. The stop at the island was wonderful. The local children were happy, kind excited to talk with us. They are working hard on education and building classrooms. RECOMMENDATION: they would appreciate gently used school books that can be used to teach you children English. I wish we had known; we would have packed some in our suitcases.
Thank you for such a thoughtful and detailed review it truly means so much to our entire team. We’re delighted that you enjoyed every part of your excursion with Safe Adventures Safaris from the smooth communication and hotel pick-up in Tiwi, to the dolphin sightings and vibrant snorkeling experience. It’s always exciting when our guides can point out octopus, squid, and the hidden treasures beneath the surface those little discoveries make the ocean come alive! Mama will be incredibly happy to hear your kind words about her cooking. Sharing local flavors prepared at home is one of the most personal parts of the experience for us. We also appreciate your reflection on the slave caves tour. It is indeed a powerful and emotional piece of Kenya’s history, and we believe it’s important to respectfully share and honor those stories. Your comments about the island community and the children are especially touching. Education is very important to the community, and your kind suggestion about bringing gently used English books is thoughtful and appreciated. Guests who wish to support local schools are always welcome to reach out to us in advance for guidance on how best to contribute in a meaningful way. Thank you again for your recommendation and for experiencing the day with such openness and heart. We would be honored to welcome you back anytime.
This was such an authentic and amazing experience. Omar and his family are such good people and getting the opportunity to see them for who they truly are was one of a kind special experience. I was all over in different areas of Kenya for 12 days and his mom’s cooking was the best I had the entire time during my visit. Definitely support local and they are an amazing team and I miss them already!!
