Masai village visit from Nairobi day tour

Summary

The tour begins with a guide picking you from your hotel, residence or airport and drive to Utterly authentic, the village visit promises unrivalled photo-opportunities. It begins with a traditional welcome from the Maasai morans (warriors), who will escort you from your vehicle and into the brushwood enclosure. Here you will find all the children who are too young to go to school; and their mothers. Typically, the village elders will be on hand to welcome you and the young morans will demonstrate the traditional kindling of fire. Several long notes will then be sounded on an eland horn. This summons the Maasai from the surrounding villages to come and meet the guests. In the meantime you will be invited to enter a traditional Maasai home.
