Getting to the Conference Each Day

  • Delegates staying at Kilua, Mombasa Continental, PrideInn Paradise, Royal Shaza, and other hotels along Serena Road can walk straight to PrideInn Flamingo Beach Resort & Spa — all are within 3–12 minutes on foot.
  • Tuktuks operate throughout Shanzu and are a quick, inexpensive option for delegates who prefer not to walk, are carrying luggage, or are staying slightly further out.
  • Matatus run along the main Malindi/Serena Road route and are the most practical option for delegates staying further away, such as those at Severin Sea Lodge on Bamburi Beach.
  • Delegates should confirm exact walking routes and current tuktuk/matatu fares with hotel front desks, as these change day to day.
