Highlights
  • Usa River - Please dont mind the location -> our guide will take you into the Maasailand (so we couldnt choose a location from the tripadvisor drop down menu).

You will have the opportunity to wear traditional Maasai clothes yourself and make typical Maasai shoes from old tyres.
Walk into the Maasai steppe with your guide and listen to his stories about nature and traditions.
On the way you will meet a herd and a Maasai child will help you to get them to their destination with whistling sounds. When you arrive at the boma feel free to support the family in their daily tasks of living (milk the cattle, rebuild their house, ….).
You can learn how to slaughter your own goat and invite people from the surrounding area to a feast. Also potatoes and roots will be served.

After an interesting day ‘living like a Maasai’ you have a whole new understanding of life.

Once in a lifetime experience - Walking into the Maasailand with my friend and a Maasai warrior was really incredible. We learned a lot about nature & healing power of the plants, but the most amazing thing was seeing how they live in their boma and spending time with the Maasai people and their cattle. Making the shoes was not that easy but a lot of fun and the goat food was good as well, although you need to get used to it. We didnt know that there is the option to also stay for 1 night in the Maasailand. So you can sleep either in the boma or under the sky with stars that bright we have never seen before. Next time we will definitely book overnight as well.
