Tourism

Ahero is to the East and about 30 kilometres from Kenya's largest Lake Victoria urban centre otherwise Kisumu City.
Attractions in Kisumu include the Kisumu Museum and most obviously Lake Victoria. Lake Victoria is the worlds second largest freshwater lake and is shared by Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania. It remained unknown to most of the western world until the 19th century with the crusade to discover the source of the Nile. Until the 1960s, Lake Victoria was home to about 320 species of fish including the brilliantly colored cichlids. The introduction of the carnivorous Nile Perch diminished the cichlid population and Lake Victoria now only has eight species of fish.

The Kisumu Museum is run by Kenya National Museums and will probably be about fifteen minutes walk from your hotel-it's very easy to get around on foot in Kisumu. To err on the safe side, you might opt to take a taxi. The Kisumu Museum has a surprisingly wide and well displayed collection of historical and ethnographic artifacts. It has one single main gallery that is surrounded by a garden full of labeled indigenous plants. It also has a good taxidermy collection, the centerpiece of which is a lion caught mid-pounce over a wildebeest.
