Masai Village Visit
What to Expect
1HR Visit to a Local Masai Village in Masai Mara
The Masai village visit is a main highlight of a typical Masai Mara Safari and can be included in your Masai Mara tour itinerary. The Masai welcome visitors to their villages to view up close their culture and lifestyle.
The first thing you will notice as you approach the village is the many colors of their garments which they wear, as well as their brightly colored jewelry worn by women and men. You will see many of these attire for sale and you can help support the village with a purchase.
You may also get to experience the villagers singing and dancing and you are invited to join in. The warriors form a circle with one person entering the center. The dancer will jump higher and higher to the rythms of the singers.
You will also visit the Boma, which is a small structure made of thatched roof and which is constructed by women of the village. The family cooks, eats and sleeps in this structure; sharing space with even livestock. The men only contribute by building the fencing of the Boma to keep lions and predators away from livestock.
For a cultural visit to a Masai village the charges are paid to the village chief and the driver / guide makes all the arrangements.
