LAMU BEACH SAFARIS - Lamu Island Safaris
Lamu Island Safaris | Lamu Beach Safari Holidays
A truly unique place, Lamu
is a town unaffected by the passage of time...;
Lamu is a romantic town that has survived time
without undergoing changes, a place where things are today almost as they
were at the turn of the Century. An exotic getaway for visitors, where
donkeys are used for transport. The streets are narrow and winding. There
are probably more dhows to be seen here than anywhere else along the East
African Coast. The beach is magnificent and uncluttered. It’s one of the
most relaxing places you will ever have the pleasure to visit. The perfect
place for honeymooners and couples.

Mount Kenya is Africa’s
second highest mountain at 5,199m (17,058
feet) and the highest of all Kenya
Mountains. Mount Kenya is roughly circular, about 60km across at the
200mm contour, where the steep font hills rise out of the gentler slopes
of the centered highlands. At the centre of the massif, the main peaks
rise sharply from around 4,500m to the main summit of Batian 5,199m,
Nelion 5,188m and point Lenana 4,985m. Other major summits on the
mountain include Point Piggott 4,957m, Point Dutton 4,885 and Point John
4,883m. Of the three main peaks (Batian, Lenana and Nelion), only point
Lenana can be reached by trekkers and the other two being only for
technical climbers. |

Africa's highest
mountain, Mount Kilimanjaro stands on featureless part of the East
African plateau, on the Tanzanian side of the Kenya border near Moshi,
side by side with the smaller Mount Meru. These mountains are extinct
volcanoes, with Kilimanjaro actually being the agglomeration of three
distinct volcanoes, Kibo (5896m/ 19,340 ft), Mwenzi (5,149 / 16,896 ft)
and Shira (3,962m / 13,000 ft). whose violent creation is geologically
associated with the creation of the Great Rift Valley, 100km to the
West. |

Mount Meru is Mount
Kilimanjaro's little sister, standing at 4,566m compared to 5,895m, but
is still an impressive freestanding volcano, which makes a superb four
day climb to the top. It last erupted in 1910 therefore can be
classified as an active volcano. The first Mount Meru ascent was made by Dr. Fritz
Jaeger, 1904. The town of Arusha lies at the base of Mount Meru
Trekking, loads of trek companies do this trek. Wild animals are
frequently found on this mountain therefore an armed ranger usually
accompanies the trekkers. |
