Begin your day with a visit to a traditional Maasai boma (homestead). Be warmly welcomed by members of the community dressed in their vibrant shukas and intricate beadwork. Learn about the Maasai’s rich cultural traditions, including their semi-nomadic lifestyle, cattle herding practices, and age-old customs such as warrior initiation ceremonies.
Participate in or observe traditional dances, explore the layout of their village, and gain insight into how the Maasai maintain their identity in the modern world.
Afterward, continue your cultural adventure with a visit to a Hadzabe village, home to one of the last remaining hunter-gatherer tribes in Africa.
