How Putu Works

STEP 1

TELL US WHAT YOU WANT

Share your dates, who you are travelling with, what you enjoy, what you do not enjoy, your pace and what would make the trip feel worthwhile.

STEP 2

WE CURATE THE RIGHT FLOW

We match your goals with trusted local experiences, the right timing and the details needed to make the day work - without making you coordinate every moving part yourself.

STEP 3

YOU SHOW UP AND ENJOY DIANI

A Putu host accompanies your experience. You focus on being present; we focus on the flow.

CURATED FLOWS

Signature Putu Experiences

Diani Morning Experience Birdsong & Breakfast
Signature Pick
FLOW—01Diani

Diani Morning Experience Birdsong & Breakfast

Begin your morning with shared pickup within Diani and travel to Kongo River, where a local canoe and your coastal morning await. Glide through calm mangrove waters in the soft morning sun, watching for herons and other birdlife while your local guide helps you understand the river, mangroves and surrounding ecosystem. After the canoe ride, step ashore and stroll through the village. Meet a local family that keeps birds and learn about the birds they care for and raise, giving you an opportunity to experience local village life beyond the usual tourist route. Continue to a Digo homestead, where you will sit on woven mikeka and enjoy breakfast the Swahili way: unhurried, communal and close to the ground. A typical breakfast may include mbaazi with coconut beans, fresh chapati, golden mahamri, spiced black tea and fresh coconut. After breakfast, stroll back to the canoe and ride through the mangroves toward Diani in the warm morning light. Assisted photography is included so you can leave with more than memories. The experience ends with shared drop-off within Diani. Birdsong & Breakfast brings together mangrove scenery, birdlife, village life, Digo culture and Swahili hospitality in one relaxed coastal morning.

Celebrations & Private MomentsPrice on request
FLOW—02 Varies

Celebrations & Private Moments

Birthdays, proposals, anniversaries, honeymoons and group moments can be layered into a Diani itinerary rather than handled as a standalone reservation.

Explore Experience
Deep Sea & TablePrice on request
FLOW—03 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 or 9 hours

Deep Sea & Table

Go beyond booking a fishing charter. Putu turns the charter into a complete day: the journey out, the fishing experience, the time on the water and the meal or post-fishing stop that follows. Choose the length of your charter according to how serious you want the fishing to be.

Explore Experience
Jet Ski & Water SportsPrice on request
FLOW—04 Varies

Jet Ski & Water Sports

Jet skis, banana/sofa rides, windsurfing, SUP and kayaking can be combined into an active water day instead of booked as isolated minutes.

Explore Experience
Ocean Freedom Day€151.11
FLOW—05 Full day - approximately 8 to 9 hours

Ocean Freedom Day

Some ocean days are meant to be unhurried. Ocean Freedom Day takes you from Diani to the turquoise waters of Kisite-Mpunguti Marine Park for a privately coordinated day of dolphin spotting, guided snorkelling, relaxed boat time and coastal dining. Your private transfer, boat, marine guide, park fees and lunch are arranged in advance. The schedule remains flexible around the tides, sea conditions and your preferred pace - giving you enough structure to enjoy the experience without turning the day into a checklist. From the journey to Shimoni to your return to Diani, Putu handles the movement and coordination so you can concentrate on the ocean.

Explore Experience
KitesurfingPrice on request
FLOW—06 Varies

Kitesurfing

Beginner lessons, progression sessions or longer courses with transport, Putu hosting and the right time on the beach.

Explore Experience
Scuba DivingPrice on request
FLOW—07 Varies

Scuba Diving

First dives, certified dives and multi-dive days - curated around your experience level and the kind of ocean day you want.

The Putu Experience Standard

A Putu experience should feel considered from the moment you leave your accommodation to the moment you return. We combine the activity with the support and details that make the experience easier to enjoy.

Want More Than One Experience?

Tell us what you want your Diani trip to achieve and we will curate the days around you. You can come with a clear wish list or simply tell us the feeling you are chasing. We will help shape the rest.

Amazing travel organization with a lot of attention for personal wishes and interest. The owner Kawira has an approach that centres on the traveller: matching stays and experiences to their preferences, with private transfers from arrival through excursions to departure. They know the local area, culture and hidden gems. I value convenience when I travel, somewhere I can properly unwind, activities that suit my interests, and transport planned so I do not spend my holiday coordinating pickups. They take care of all of this so you can simply enjoy your trip.

Amazing experience with the Putu Travels team in Diani! As a first-time solo traveller, I was a little nervous about travelling alone, but the team made me feel safe, welcomed and looked after from the moment I arrived to the moment I left.

I recently booked a morning tour to Kongo River with Putu Travel Company, and it was an absolutely fantastic experience from start to finish. Before heading out to the river, we took a break at The Village Retreat. It was the perfect way to start the day before the adventure on the river.

Amazing curated experience. Christine created a perfect package for me and my family based on our requirements. Being vegetarian and an ocean lover, we don't always get inclusive experiences, but Christine was able to create something where we had nothing to worry about and everything was taken care of
