Pangani Walking Tour

The historical town of Pangani sits at the mouth of the Pangani River. Where old, decaying colonial buildings are slipping back in time. Absorb the culture with a guided tour of Pangani. This offers freedom to explore without harassment.

Virtually undiscovered

The quaint ferry will take you across the river, which washes down from Mount Kilimanjaro. The river is a host to an array of birdlife. You can sometimes see crocodiles.

The surrounding utopia

You can be mesmerized by the surrounding utopia. This has lost itself amongst

coconut forests,
a pristine coastline
and its dilapidated old Arab, Swahili and Colonial architecture.

Once a slave and ivory port

Pangani is now mainly a fishing port.

Explore with a professional guide
