The island of Lamu remains
a relatively undiscovered gem.
It may only be about an hour's flight north east from
Nairobi, but it feels as if you have travelled back in time.
Lamu Old Town is the oldest and best-preserved Swahili
settlement in East Africa, where donkeys are still the only
form of transport.
To visit Lamu is to enter another world.
Life slows down, and long days are spent strolling along the
waterfront, exploring the town or relaxing on the beaches.

As well as all the usual aspects of coastal
