I recommend arriving about 30 minutes early to grab a good seat. The best rows fill up fast, especially for popular releases. I didn't and had to sit too close to the screen.

I think you should definitely try the snacks - the popcorn was super fluffy! Just be mindful of the sizes; I got the biggest one and it was way too much for one person.

I suggest checking the movie schedules online before you go. I went there without looking and ended up missing the show I wanted. Online schedules are usually accurate and save you from a last-minute rush.

I think bringing your own snacks is a smart move – the food options can be a bit pricey and not always what you expect, so save some cash and pack a picnic instead.

My advice is to wear comfy shoes. The walk along the waterfront is long and you might want to explore every corner. I regretted it when my feet started to ache!

I recommend trying to eat at local eateries rather than touristy spots. The food is not just cheaper but also has that authentic Mombasa flavor that you just can't get from the hotel options!

My advice is to bring some water and snacks. There's not a lot around since the museum is kind of secluded, and you’ll enjoy your visit much more without a rumbling stomach!
