As part of my travel to Kenya, I made it a point to explore Mombasa. Mombasa is a coastal city in southeastern Kenya along the Indian Ocean. It was the first capital of British East Africa, before Nairobi was elevated to capital city status in 1907. It now serves as the capital of Mombasa County. The town is known as "the white and blue city" in Kenya.
Come with me to explore the amazing street food, restaurants, culture and beaches on Mombasa.

My name is Jasmine and I have relocated from Sydney Australia to Ghana in west Africa as of the year 2020.
My parents are of Ghanaian descent and so am I although I was born in Australia. Here on my channel, my goal is to give you a real glimpse into what it’s like to live in Ghana and other parts of Africa, from the food, to the culture, to the lifestyle and everything in between. My goal is to satisfy your curiosity about Ghana and other African countries.
My prayer is that these videos do just that for several African’s in the diaspora.
Follow your bliss because life is short, follow your bliss because human life has no intrinsic value, follow your bliss because everything happens for the greater good and follow your bliss because it has all happened before.
The guy that said " hey baby , welcome to Kenya" thank you for representing coastal men. Smiles...
Wooow will definitely visit Kenyan one day 🥰🇬🇭🌍❤️
Karibu
Now I hope you understand why the entire Kenya landscape is so unique with white sand beaches, blue ocean, wildlife safaris and beautiful capital city etc. As a Kenyan living in London sometimes when I watch your type of vlogs I feel like packing up my bags and heading home.
Our home never disappoint I miss my country also ❤
Kenyan Somalis are natives to Kenya, they are one of the tribes of Kenya, they are from northern part of Kenya. Also it’s very likely the people in coastal Kenya are just Swahili people
If you thought the waters in Mombasa were clear wait until you get to DIani water so clear you can see the sea floor and sea creatures at low tide nearer the shoreline.
The mango snack you had iat the beach is sun dried semi ripe mangoes coated in a sugar baobab powder and food colouring syrup. I wish you had gone inside Fort Jesus so much history there.
Kenya our heritage,kenya our pride.Proudly kenyan.
Too much Indian influence
That is where swahili community originated from a mix of Bantu speakers and Arabs@@BlackCatholicGirl
Fort Jesus.
@@BlackCatholicGirlArabs are more there.
Kenya the pride of Africa❤❤ mombasa my city❤❤
See my beautiful sister enjoying Mombasa
Yesoo 🙏🏾🥰
Yo bro Nappie long time,I remember some years ago when you toured Kenya and did some very good videos.I hope all is well with you.
@@JC-ty3zq yes sir all is well! Hoping to visit coastal kenya very soon
Mombasa seems like it's in a different country when compared to Nairobi. The old architecture is really beautiful. The newer developments are like any other modern building.
The Swahili food looked really good too at such affordable prices.
Kenya is impressive.
Thanks for sharing.
Yes right @aceejekwam6829 Mombasa is a coastal town on the coast line ,Designed by UNESCO to give the historical significance same with Oman 🇴🇲 Zanzibar and Maputo
@@Ulfy305 Thanks for sharing.
Wooow! I was there in October 2023, I didn't want to leave 🥲. Beautiful place indeed 😍
They're is a swahili saying that translates to " Coming to Mombasa is a wedding and leaving is a funeral." Everyone is always sad leaving Mombasa including me😢😢
wow i can’t wait to visit Kenya, i think it would be great content for my growing channel ❤ thanks for showing us 😊
You are most welcomed.
l am so happy that one of my favorite Ghanian youtuber has finally come home to visit, it feels good when your own sisters and brothers from the continent visit and enjoy your motherland.
Wow, some of the foods and snacks are the same as in Guyana, from the Red Mangoes, the Green Mangoes with pepper and salt we also pickle the green mangoes with pepper/salt/vinegar or lime/lemon juice), the coconut curry fish (or coconut curry anything). Kenya looks great thus far.
That's because we have a similar history of Indian presence in the country as Guyana and Trinidad. The AfroIndian community in Kenya are as a result of indetured servants being brought over from India by the British more than a century ago. They brought their foods and language which have been adopted into native Kenyan culture. What you guys call Pholourie we call Bhaji za dengu we also eat daal and our version of pulao again thanks to the Afro Indian community they are actually the 44th tribe of Kenya
@@Dialove24tell us name of restraunts with such FOODS..
Yes Kenya and India are just separated by indian ocean@@Dialove24
Jasmine you really look good in Kenya. You should stay longer and go back and explore more of Kenya.
I loved mombasa Everytime I went to Kenya 🇰🇪 ❤ wonderful city ,nice and warm, beautiful beaches
Why have I been waiting for this episode like this is a tv series.. hooked .. awesomeness job...
Aww ❤
Wait until you go see beaches in Diani, Watamu Malindi or Lamu. Those are superb ones
I am loving these Kenya 🇰🇪 vlogs.
Thanks Kay xx
I am so happy that you are visiting my hometown Mombasa. Coastarians are very friendly people please remember to greet us we love being friendly and welcoming we are known as the friendliest region in Kenya. They are probably used to seeing a lot of CZcamsrs in old towns, so they are not staring. Also happy that you are eating from Local joints, where you will find authentic Swahili food.
A lot of tourists and visitors to Mombasa mistake Old Town Mombasa with the entire city of Mombasa. Old town is the oldest "city" in Kenya. In modern times, it's very old and neglected but it existed as a beautiful city as far back as the 800s. (not the 1200s, not the 1500s not the 1800s, but the 800s). The not-so-beautiful places you see in Old Town are not what you find in the modern parts of Mombasa. With that being said, we Kenyans love every place in our country. We have everything the good, the bad and the ugly from the ultra modern to the sketchiest, the hottest weather to the most freezing, the wealthiest neighborhoods to ghettos, slums, and beautiful rural countrysides. We are proud of our motherland and treat all visitors with respect thats whywe are the only country in Africa where you'll find people from all over the world. Long live Mombasa and God bless my country Kenya.
You're very friendly but very lazy at the same time.
@@jamesmisaro6828just tormenting MUZUNGU FOR BEGGING.
Mombasa my home, thanks for showcasing my town. Welcome once more
Passion fruits are grown in plenty in Kenya, hence the availability of fresh passion fruit juice.
Oh that makes sense xx
Came across this channel few days ago My city My town, you get everything and anything you want here. Too bad you left early, but the grind must continues, from a different perspective I see what you doing and its good, Africa is full of love, development and resources all we need is unity ❤❤
Wish you went do Diani... Best beaches in the world.
Kenya is so diverse continue exploring it, if you want the best mangoes visit our Eastern parts of the country (ukambani areas) they have the best and sweetest mangoes, next visit Kisumu city it's a lakeside city same size with Accra, then visit Nakuru city which is our second city with a national park after Nairobi (it also has a lake)
What’s the size of Accra?
Come on Kariuki. Accra is not the same size as Kisumu which is the third largest city in Kenya after Nairobi and Mombasa. A little bit of Wikipendia would have easily informed you that instead of intentionally dispersing misinformation.
Accra is a much larger city. How it equates to Nairobi can be debated
@@stevenjenga7171 . Im not going to challenge your claims. Because I don’t banter ignorance
Your stylist really understands what how to make you shine!
Aw thanks. I am my stylist haha xx
Great job, Jasmine. Mombasa is vibrant, and beautiful. The people look so welcoming. Excellent job. Love your videos. I will do everything within my power too make Kenya my home. Love from America. ❤
Me too Mike! Where are you from in the States?
@@frana.4086 I am from North Carolina.
Karibu nyumbani welcome home brother
@@michaelmiller2277be careful there.
Public beach has fewer people on week days.. weekends it's very busy
I love the way you gave us a clear view of Mombassa! Some people don't present enough content but you did exceptionally well! Because of your video I will definitely visit Mombassa! I just can't wait to get back to Nairobi! Best friend, where are we traveling to next? You have a professional presentation and your videos are flawless! Much love from the States!
Aw so happy to hear xx
@@JasmineAmaamangoes are actually seasonal so the very ripe ones that are sweet will depend on the season. They are definitely there.
Jasmine Ama is one vlogger who can attract both mature and young subscribers because of her composed nature and eloquent way of talking, explaining just like a good teacher does to their students. Some vloggers can annoy you with unnecessary laughter and giggles while others are super hyper talking like a typewriter would sound and this is so annoying. Keep it up Jasmine. - Kenyan watching you from London, UK.
Love Nyali beach. Cant wait to be back, great video!
Kenyans really love visitors. Those weren't ripe mangoes that is why they were kind of sour. A few more days and your mouth would be exploding with sweet and hot flavors. I hope you were going to Diani.
I noticed they were popular. People sold those green mangoes almost everywhere lol
@@JasmineAmaa They eventually turn yellow on the inside and are very juicy.
Also I don't think it was mango season otherwise you would have been split for choice especially with AppleMangoes literally taste like a cross between mangoes and apples
Next time you're on the Kenyan coast you may want to stay in Diani. Cleaner, more upscale and suited for tourists activities that you may want to do in a coastal area.
Wow amazing you stayed in La Mera I used to stay there for a year I really loved it … and yes Sunday’s are too crowded especially the public beaches
Whenever i see Jasmine's videos i feel happy ❤😊 keep enjoying yourself in our beautiful country 🇰🇪
Glad to see you exploring Africa in your own way. So gorgeous
Good to see you creating good content in my country🇰🇪
Hey Jasmine, am glad you enjoyed your visit in Mombasa. Next time try going to South Coast "Diani" you will love it. The beaches are golden and very clean. Good job 👍🏾.
Yea I can recommend Diani I was there last month .it was breathtaking with white sand so beautiful
Yeah! Definitely Diani, Kisite Mpunguti and Shimba Hills gave me a whole different respect for Kwale county
Enjoy my country and feel at home 🏡 Jasmine. I love Ghana as well and her people.
Lovely..you are making us to miss going 4 holiday ❤
Oooh Ama well done good shots of Mombasa Kenya this is what we luv to see reality 😅❤
I am glad you are having an awesome time in Kenya. Enjoy your stay!! We are really excited that you decided on Kenya as your vacation destination. Karibu Sana!!
Karibu kwetu dada jihisi uko nyambani welcome again love you
Waiting for your next video..liking your explores🎉
You should come back to Kenya someday. You do it twice and you're hooked. There's a reason why we call the city MOMBASA RAHA. We have had many fellows who left our neighborhood to visit the coastal city and never came back. The story is replicated in all parts of the country. They say it's only death that takes you away from Mombasa.
MOMBASA RAHA!(MOMBASA IS FUN)
Mombasa old town ❤I love the atmosphere
Thanks for promoting KEs economy.
Great content ✊🏿🇬🇭✊🏿
Your channel just popped on my CZcams and all i can say is can watch you the whole day..
I am so happy from you and your energy❤, Kenya is the best
Thank you for sharing your adventures with us, seems you've fully enjoyed Mombasa, on your next tour I'd highly recommend considering a visit to Diani. Karibu Kenya.
You are a wonderful content creator. I just happened to stample on your Kenyan safari content and I was glued to the end even though I am Kenyan.
You enjoy your job and I was fascinated by your presentation.
Welldone beautiful.
I love your outfit sweetheart, thanks for taking us along, beautiful view and food looks yummy 😋 😍
Glad you are having a great time out here, next time visit Watamu, Kilifi, Diani or Lamu, amazing experiences all through, karibu Kenya.
GLAD YOU LIKED THE COAST AND MOMBASA WHERE,I GREW UP .I DEFINITELY MISS IT ALOT
Thank you for such a nice video trying Kenyan street food and old towns 👍
i even salivated as you were biting the mango 😋😋 it slaps different when you are from kenya lol
🤣🤣 it was so sour
I still watch your videos you shot in Mombasa ❤
Welcome back to Kenya again.
Unbiased vlog right there
A very nice video! Mombasa is nice and a cool place where we as Kenyans normally go for vacation to just relax our minds before going back to working mode... if it was the festive season, it'll be popping... i really love Mombasa for sure ❤
I rarely enjoy vlogs but your channel is exceptional. Enjoy Kenya and welcome again and again.
Thank you so much! X
@@JasmineAmaa You're much welcome.
You were right on the mango the green one are used to make the achari i wiahed you had tried the spicy "mabuyu" babob. Mind u we have about more than 15 variety of mango in kenya
Ohhh hopefully i get to try that too xx
Mombasa is much more fun.seems you only did mombasa town. Next look for local to show you around. Go to Diani beaches,mama ngina drive,English point marina,kilifi, watamu,malindi there is much much more.
Awesome video!!!! Kenya is such a awesome and beautiful country. Thanks for sharing Jasmine.
Glad u enjoyed it xx
Am glad you are so calm..I enjoy your adventures
I will add to my bucket list! Thanks for sharing Jasmine 👍
You should! X
I think I heard you say 4 times that you will come back to Mombasa! 😅 Kenya is magical
kenya come a long way from not allowing filming to a total turn and being a big tourist attraction
Our ghana is very behind ooh. We cannot compete with these countries in the east but at least we are better than our loud noisy neighbours in green and white. this loud neighbours are the ones dragging us behind. I wish Kenya and Uganda was our neighbours
❤
@@manfestbrother come over for a visit we love Ghana too
It’s because Kenya recently voted in young bright leaders who are up to date with the benefits of adopting to new technologies like embracing advertising the country through CZcams.
Old town my friend, am glad you crossed it to the other end safely without an incident. Welcome back again to Kenya
Beautiful city. It's the Old Town folks for me. Very inquisitive and friendly
Hmm ,I had curry chicken with roti for dinner today . You've now motivated me to make some tamarind drink 🙂. It's delicious, healthy and works like roughage . I've noticed the foods both street and gourmet are similar to foods you would find in Guyana, interesting! I love the beaches. Thank you for sharing!
Great content 🎉
Hello Jasmine, good to catch up with you, if you have time try South Coast too, the beaches are much cleaner and the resorts are amazing and don't leave Mombasa without trying some Pilau rice . The sound was distorted today couldn't hear a word you were saying. Watching from the UK 🇬🇧Enjoy and take care.
WOW! 😯
The natural scenery of Mombasa is breathtaking. The way the greenery contrasts with the beaches and the blue of the Indian Ocean is... 😯👍
The traditional architecture of Mombasa is where it's at. The Swahili coastal cities are a hub of beautiful culture and history.
I heard Swahili cuisine is really good, is it true?
Keep showing the beauty of Kenya.
P.S
I love the Swahili language.
Very true indeed...you should travel there sometime
Am so hungry...the foods you keep eating looks delicious
Love your videos it extremely important to me , i coming back to Africa in the last quarter 2024 you are giving me good in site of Kenya is and i very appreciative for that .Will keep looking at your videos and your other handles.
Been waiting all day for this next instalment. I soo look forward to your content. Well done Jasmine, keep up the good work x

Jasmine, your CZcams presentations are very well presented and edited. You're very professional and you seem a likeable person. Kudos 👏 and continue the good work.
Thanks so much ❤️
A very short visit! Next time Lamu and Diani beaches. They are so beautiful!
Good job Ama❤❤
One in a million lady ♥️ pure love 💯 now I have hope that one day we will be United 🙏
Jasmine Ama, the most stunning vlogger in Ghana. She's got it!
Great content. Thanks
Wow lovely beach
Love what you doing ❤❤
I like watching videos from Africa. African people are very beautiful!
Of cos there's chilli in any restaurant you go to.. you just need to ask. Kenyans don't put chilli on the food when its cooking cos most Kenyans dont love chilli. So no need to eneak in chilli, just ask for it
Welcome again. Next time visit Lamu, Diani and Watamu. We love you😊
Most of those aren't somali people. Those are Kenyan Arab and Omani and Swahili people (yes, Kenyan tribes are extremely diverse). Very different from somali people, that's why I like my country.
Now somali ethnicity, is the 4th largest in Kenya. The Kenyan Arabs, Omani and Swahili are also part of The Kenyan tribes. Just like you have different tribes in Ghana.
If you have time you can visit the 4 counties like Wajir, Garissa, Mandera in Kenya where there are Kenyan somali ethnicity or you can also visit Eastleigh in Nairobi.
It's not even the 5th largest. Y'all are weird.
@@thedante7722it's the 4th largest. Google is not far away from you
@@TrizaBundi Google just called: The five largest - Kikuyu, Luo, Luhya, Kamba and Kalenjin account for 70%...
Y'all Jareers keep on eating false narratives meant to disenfranchise you in the long run. They're number six, and that number is inflated by Somali immigrants cause voter registration number, IDs, KCSE/KCPE registration does not match.
They're at most number 6 and actual Kenyan Somalis are not more than Kisiis.
@@thedante7722 What does jareer mean please
@@nimoofficial8747 Kinky, nappy hair. Nywele ngumu.
Very beautiful,I would love to visit one day!!
This place looks therapeutic
It is
What about organizing a group trip to Kenya? Very interested in going there.
I’m impressed with your vlogs. You seem to like Kenya though.
Yeah i’m going soon
Jasmine I'm one of your follower, thank you very much for your clear information, wonderful job watching you from Brussels right now, you show as a lot, wonderful City's like Nairobi and Mombasa, I'm going to visit Kenya Nairobi and Mombasa this month on April 2024 for 10 times joining my family's coming from Ethiopia.
U r welcome. I loved both places. Sure u would too x
