Lamu Archipelago – 4 Nights

Transfer to airstrip – Flight to Wilson Airport (1.15 hours) – Flight to Lamu (2.15 hours) – Transfer to accommodation. Cast into the Indian Ocean off the coast of Kenya, the island and town of Lamu is heir to a distinctive tradition over a thousand years old.  The Swahili culture and style of Lamu are a mix of East African, Omani, Yemeni, Indian, and some Portuguese and Victorian influences. Enjoy romantic dhow cruises into the sunset or walks along the beaches. Exploring Lamu Town will give you a great insight into Swahili culture - donkey-wide alleyways from which children grin; women whispering by in full-length “bui-bui” (black cover-all worn by some Islamic women outside the home); cats casually ruling the rooftops; blue smoke from meat grilling over open fires; and the organic, biting scent of the cured wooden shutters on houses built of stone and coral. Lamu is an UNESCO World Heritage Site and arguably the most complete Swahili town in existence. Activities: Kayaking, laser sailing & windsurfing
