Kanottur i solnedgång på en flod i mangroven
Beskrivning
Möt din guide, Omari, som brinner för att bevara mangroven runt detta område som han kallar hem. Han har otrolig kunskap om de olika fågelarterna i området. Segla genom vattnet, träffa byborna och se solen gå ner över mangrovebäckarna. Denna upplevelse är det ultimata sättet att koppla av när solen går ner. Effekt skapad: + Stödja en dold pärla: den här platsen ligger utanför allfartsvägarna men ett antal byar omger den och litar på området för inkomst. + Lokal sysselsättning: kanoten hyrs lokalt och det är kaptenen också, detta stärker lokalsamhället men är också bra för resenären som kan dra nytta av enorm kunskap om platsen. + Inga motorer: Kanoten drivs av mänsklig energi (kaptenen radar och du kan om du vill!) vilket innebär att inga motorer och inga smutsiga ångor kommer in i vattnet. + Gemenskap: pengarna från denna resa kommer att sippra ner till samhället för att hjälpa till med sjukvård, sysselsättning och utbildning.

Very evocative experience.
Thank you so much for sharing! We’re so glad you found the Kongo River experience captivating. Asante sana for choosing T4P!
Omari was very knowledgeable about the animals around the kongo river, we learned so much about the ecosystem and history. He was also very accommodating, patient, gave us the best views for photos and taught us the Kenya welcome song. Kongo river is a must visit in Diani and the sunset is especially beautiful.
This is so lovely! We’re glad Omari shared so much about the ecosystem and history and even taught you the Kenya welcome song. So happy you enjoyed the sunset and the experience. Asante sana!
Fantastic sunset in a relaxing environment and an excellent captain Omari
Thank you so much! A beautiful sunset, a peaceful river and Omari at the helm sounds like a perfect Kongo River evening. Asante sana for joining us!
This is a very mellow canoe trip. Our guide was great. It’s a slow trip up the river and back down. Time to view and listen to the wildlife - lots or birds and bush babies. We could also hear traditional music and singing if a celebration in the woods. It was a nice evening.
So glad you enjoyed the slow and peaceful pace of the river! There really is something special about simply listening to the birds and taking in the surroundings. Asante sana for sharing!
Omari was a great guide, very friendly and super knowledgeable. He was calm, smiley and handled the canoe well. Lovely experience of a sunset canoeing down the river.
Thank you so much! We’re delighted you enjoyed the calm pace and beautiful sunset with Omari. We’ll be sure to share your kind words with him. Asante sana!
Omari was an amazing captain/guide on the canoe tour! He has a lot of knowledge about everything there is to know about the mangroves, the different species of birds, monkeys, etc. The unfortunate part was that it was a rainy day so the sunset wasn’t too amazing but we still got lucky with a little sunset which was great! I highly recommend this tour as it is almost like a meditation trip in itself.
This is so lovely, Preston! Thank you for appreciating Omari’s knowledge and the peaceful side of the experience. Even with the rain, glad the sun gave you a little appearance. Asante sana for the recommendation!
The experience was amazing from the beginning to the end. Sham was kind and shared a lot about Travel4Purpose's mission to give back to society. We had a calming, almost meditative sail in the Kongo Strait where we spotted different kinds of mangrove trees and a variety of bird species. Our guide, Omar, was very informative and intentional about how he wanted us to enjoy. The sunset was so amazing that no one wanted to leave. I highly recommend this excursion if you want to go to the calm side of the Ocean Thank you, Sham and Omar
Thank you so much for this beautiful review! We love that the experience felt calm and almost meditative for you. Sharing the story of the Kongo River and our mission is one of our favourite parts of what we do. We'll be sure to share your kind words with Omar. Thank you for spending your sunset with us!
Great experience. Omari is a wonderful tour guide who made me feel safe from the beginning of meeting up.
Thank you for your kind words! We're so glad you felt comfortable and safe from the moment you arrived. Omari will be delighted to hear this. Thanks for joining us on the river!
Very pleasant boat tour on the Congo River. We saw some birds, crabs, and lungfish, and Omari explained everything expertly. The sunset was the most beautiful part 🌅 We took a Tuk-Tuk from the hotel (be sure to negotiate beforehand, as the drivers otherwise demand excessively high prices). It was our last day of vacation, making it a wonderful conclusion. Highly recommended.
Thank you so so much! So glad you appreciated the thriving biodiversity and Omari's wonderful guiding. Appreciate you taking the time to write this!
Omari literally tells the story of the Kongo River, accurately describes the flora and fauna, takes the time to fully enjoy the moment
What a beautiful way to describe the experience! Omari is passionate about the river and everything that calls it home so he'll be delighted to hear this. Thank you for slowing down with us and taking the time to appreciate the magic of the Kongo River!
