Discover the unique historical site with this Gede Ruins Day Trip from Watamu. You'll visit the ruins of this Swahili city full of secrets and you'll be surprised!

Gede Ruins Day Trip

We'll pick you up at the Blue Bay IGV Hotel at the indicated time and set off for the ruins of Gede, which are only 15 minutes from the coast.

Upon arrival at Gede, local people will welcome us with typical songs and demonstrate their way of life. Following this welcome, we'll explore the ruins, including old houses, palaces, and mosques located in the forest of Kenya.

We will share the intriguing story of these remains, part of a Swahili town dating back to the 12th century, which reached its peak in the 15th century. Gede was eventually abandoned, leaving numerous unresolved mysteries.

After our exploration of this archaeological site and its secrets, we'll return you to the meeting point 2 hours after pickup.
