On this walk through the Maasailand you will have the opportunity to learn everything about the Maasai culture and healing traditions from your guide, gaining a deep insight into the everyday life of the people. On your way, you might come across some cattle led by young Maasai children and even be able to see some zebras or antelopes.

LIVE LIKE A MAASAI FOR ONE DAY

Arusha

Today you will have the opportunity to try on the traditional Maasai clothes yourself. We supply you with a used tire, cassava, corn, sweet potato, milk powder, tea, and enough water. In the Maasailand you will soon find a herd and a Maasai child will help you to get them to their destination with whistling sounds. Go goat and cow milking in one of the Maasai settlements and have a look at their houses (bomas).
