Mombasa Car Rental Mini Guide
Mombasa is the centre of the Kenyan tourism industry but most of the resorts are south and north of the city. Most tourists overlook the charms of the city itself but if you have hired a car, the city is within easy reach of the resorts and you will be able to visit its most famous attraction, Fort Jesus.
Although Mombasa is considered a central hub of tourism it does not have many developed tourist attractions. Most International visitors will arrive at
Moi International Airport. The city is located on Mombassa Island, the island is then connected to the mainland by Nyali Bridge and operates a ferry transport for people and cars.
