Romantic Lamu Package 2 Nights/3 Days
Tour Summary/ Features:
This tour takes you to Lamu -a town, an island and an
archipelago. Lamu has an ambience of mediaeval romance that
attracts those who are offended by the burdens of our modern
existence. It has in recent years found favour with the
international glitterati. Life in the island goes on almost like
it did in the 14th century when the settlement was founded. The
Lamu museum is on the waterfront, occupying a house once
occupied by Jack Haggard, Queen Victoria's consul in this then
important outpost. This museum is a small gem, housing a
collection of Swahili artifacts, jewelry and crafts unequalled
anywhere else. Your stay is in a top rated hideaway- the
Kipungani Bay Beach Resort.
