Mombasa holidays deliver the cream of the crop of African breaks. With a multitude of impressive national parks, tropical white sand beaches, and brilliant coral reefs, a holiday in Mombasa is a nature-lover's dream. Take a trip in a glass-bottom boat or break out the snorkelling and scuba gear to catch a glimpse of Whale sharks and Manta Rays. One of the most breathtaking ways to see Mombasa is via hot air balloon. You'll start just before dawn, and be able to watch the sun rise as you float above the sweeping plains.
