Kisumu
Full Day City Tour offers
the very best attractions of Kisumu city in one jam-packed
day of a boat ride on Lake Victoria for wildlife and
bird watching, history of Kisumu, the Luo Tribe and
their lifestyle.
The
tour begins after breakfast at your hotel/ residence
in the morning. You take a short drive/ walk to the
jetty to take a boatride on Lake Victoria - the second
largest fresh water lake in the world for a boat ride/
sunrise cruise for bird watching (300 + bird species),
birds feeding and hippo watching.
You
will then proceed to Dunga fishing village where you
will meet the local fishermen and fishmongers. You will
get to interact with the fishermen to learn the secrets
of their trade which is their lifeline for sustainability.
The fish business has also contributed largely to the
escalating of the HIV/ AIDS pandemic apart from being
a source of income.
After
the fishing village you return to the jetty and take
a drive down through the city on your way to the Kisumu
Museum where you’ll learn about the history of
the region and the local Luo tribe.
Kisumu
Museum has varieties of interesting animal exhibits,
including a stuffed Lion pouncing on a stuffed Wildebeest.
Other artifacts include archeological findings as Western
Kenya has several digs with findings that date back
over 1.5 million years. There are ethnographic exhibits
and a display of dominant Luo tribe musical instruments
and their traditional culture.
After
the Museum visit, you will take a tour of a Masai Souvenir
Market for some gift shopping, then followed by a fascinating
guided stroll around the bustling municipal food market.
Next is lunch lunch a hotel/ lodge, lake-side fish restaurant
or local barbeque joint.
The
rest of the afternoon is spent in the tranquil setting
of the Kisumu Impala Sanctuary on the banks of Lake
Victoria. Follow the many trails around the park, or
simply sit quietly in the shade down by the Lake and
let the wild impala and zebra roam closer. Kisumu Impala
Park is a game sanctuary and an animal orphanage home
to the rare Sitatunga antelope.
The
Kisumu Impala Wildlife Sanctuary was opened in 1992
with the intention of protecting a herd of impala and
serve as a safe grazing ground for hippopotamus from
the Lake Victoria.
Spread
over an area of less than one square kilometer, the
Kisumu Impala Wildlife Sanctuary acts a home for sick
or orphaned animals like baboons, hyenas and leopards
which can be seen at a close range. The tour ends by
a transfer back to your hotel/ residence.
