IN TRADITION OF ARAB SAILORS

Sleep under the stars on Tusitiri, a 20m jahazi (dhow), and sail around the Lamu archipelago, while exploring deserted beaches & island hideaways.
  
Originally built in Lamu over 20 years ago, Tusitiri offers a unique opportunity to sail around the Lamu archipelago in the tradition of Arab sailors plying the spice route in centuries past, combining the romance of this romantic era with every modern day comfort. Constructed of specific local hardwoods, dhows date back to the Afro-Arab civilisation before the time of Christ, and are traditionally used for trading exotic commodities between the Arabian Gulf, India and the East African coast. Since her launch, Tusitiri has ventured south to Mozambique and as far East as India. Her spacious decks and gracious furnishings allow up to twelve guests to relax, enjoy a variety of water-sports, and enjoy the beautiful surroundings of this little visited area. When conditions allow, Tusitiri raises her majestic sails in time-honoured tradition, at other times, conditions may require the use of the main engine. Booked on an exclusive basis, Tusitiri is the perfect getaway for friends seeking fun and adventure, families wishing to spend time together, or couples looking for the ultimate retreat.
