Masai Village Tour

Safari summary

The Maasai village visit is a day tour that take a couple of hours visit to visit the masai village and learn about their cultural.
So, what is the name of a Maasai village? Well, the Maasai live in structures known as 'Manyatta', which are low height dwellings, essentially huts, made of mud, cow dung and wood, with a single entrance and minimal side windows. Clusters of these manyatta huts, which form a homestead or village, are known as a Maasai ''Boma''. Several Bomas can also join together to make a larger village. The individual huts themselves, the manyattas, have windows so small that it can be very dark inside a manyatta even on a sunny day. There is no piped water, electricity or Gas. We should point out that these specific manyattas or villages are right in the interior of Narok, close to the reserve. While there is power and piped water in the reserve itself and in the more developed part of Narok district, the very traditional Maasai villages still exist in this manner.
