Overview
This program lets you experience the traditions of the Maasai, the famed pastoralist people of East Africa. Tour a manyatta (traditional dung-and-mud home), watch the warriors' jumping dance, and see fire being made by hand. Pose for photos with warriors in red shukas and shop for beaded crafts. It's a thoughtful way to reflect on how the Maasai preserve their heritage in a modernizing world.
