'Nature heals.' My visit to Kaya Kinondo gave me an opportunity to reconnect with nature in this case the forest. The nature trail offered an opportunity to learn and unwind (me hugging the tree). The traditional food was tasty and easily among the tastiest foods I've eaten and the people are friendly, you feel right at home. Let me not forget the traditional dance. So next time you are in Diani, drive down to Kaya Kinondo and have an experience in nature.

This was such an interesting and fun thing to do and one of our highlights at Diani! A very unique experience learning about the history of the area and the cultural significance of this forest. We had the best volunteer guide, Salim, who was articulate and very funny! Would definitely recommend making the journey here, no need to book.

I recommend this tour combining learning about nature and the native people of the Coast AND discovering an ancient forest on coral rock with all senses on. The knowledge of the Digo people about plant species, tree burials and energy exchange is just being rediscovered. Call the phone number indicated on Google maps and reserve a tour slot. The fee for Kenyans is 500 KES, for residents 800 and for foreigners 1000. All the money goes into conservation efforts and supporting the Digo community. The entrance fee includes the tour guide. The last tour of the day is at 04pm because the tour guide closes the info house at 06pm and the forest is darker at dawn. There is a long tour (2h) to the freshwater spring and a shorter tour around the forest (1 - 1.5h), depending on how fit you are. Drive South on Diani Beach Road, past the paved road on the bumpy one, turn right after the sign for the forest comes and enter the parking spot. First, you will be introduced to the Digo culture and customs in the informational house because you cannot do certain things in the sacred forest and want to show respect while enjoying the tour. The tour is interactive and I encourage you to ask the guide lots of questions. I was amazed by the answers which showed vast ancient knowledge.

Short and nice tour/walk through the forest. It was low keyed place that is off the beaten track. We enjoyed the information shared by the tour guide. We took a tut tut from Diani beach there and asked the driver to come back for us after one hour. Make sure that you are armed with sufficient insect repellents.
