Siaya

Lakeshore villages, ancestral homes and the quieter side of Lake Victoria.

Siaya County, west of Kisumu, stretches along the northern shore of Lake Victoria. It’s rural, green and deeply cultural โ€” visit the homestead of Barack Obama Sr. in Kogelo, fish with local crews on the lake, and explore Got Ramogi, the sacred hill said to be the first Luo settlement.
