Masai village visit from Nairobi day tour
Nairobi, Kenya
A visit to the Masai region would not be complete with a visit to our nearby maasai community boma (village), which delivers a unique insight into this age-old culture. The community with which has established a relationship is located just a hour drive away from the city and constitutes an enjoyable road trip with panoramic views of the country side. Once you arrive within the village, you can meet the people, visit a typical Maasai home, learn about Maasai daily life, enjoy dancing and singing displays and visit the community’s own handicrafts market.
The vibrancy of Maasai culture is unrivaled and typically centers around a brushwood enclosure into which the community’s cows and goats are herding is their daily activities.
Description
The tour begins with a guide picking you from your hotel, residence or airport and drive to
Utterly authentic, the village visit promises unrivalled photo-opportunities. It begins with a traditional welcome from the Maasai morans (warriors), who will escort you from your vehicle and into the brushwood enclosure. Here you will find all the children who are too young to go to school; and their mothers. Typically, the village elders will be on hand to welcome you and the young morans will demonstrate the traditional kindling of fire. Several long notes will then be sounded on an eland horn. This summons the Maasai from the surrounding villages to come and meet the guests. In the meantime you will be invited to enter a traditional Maasai home.
