Funzi Island Visit Review
I recently experienced the Funzi Island Safari River Ramisi tour, and it was truly amazing. The boat ride along the Ramisi River was beautiful and peaceful, and spotting a crocodile was such an exciting highlight. We then visited the Funzi Nature Trail, where we enjoyed delicious, fresh seafood in a serene setting. The village visit was insightful and added a meaningful cultural touch to the whole experience. I highly recommend it for anyone looking for adventure, great food, and an authentic coastal experience.

Excursion to Funzi Island and lunch with fresh oesce, prawns, rice and tomato. All very good, excursion made in search of crocodiles in the mangroves, bathing on the atoll before entering the river.
Small but beautiful island with a small village. Everything organized to perfection thanks to Massimo, a beach boy of Diani beach, nice, good, honest and speaks italiani.tlTutto organized al meglio.Massimo was with us 3 days between Safari al Tsavo, Funzi island and Maasai village. I recommend it.+254 704 155200. Super price.
