Lamu is so close to the African mainland that it seems almost impossible not to be tempted to hop across the waters to experience the thrill of safari. This is actually pretty easy to do with regular flights to mainland cities and onward connections to small airports hidden in the wide grassslands of the savannah plains. Fleewinter has selected some once in a lifetime experiences that are perfect to combine with a few days or week in Lamu. Choose from our favourite safari camps in Kenya or Tanzania or gorilla treks in Rwanda.
