No trip to Kenya is complete without engaging with its vibrant cultures. Visiting a local Maasai or Samburu village provides a humbling and enriching insight into their ancient traditions, way of life, and spiritual connection to the land. You’ll often be treated to traditional dances, learn about their homesteads (enkang), and have the chance to purchase handmade crafts directly from the community.

Why it’s a must: A genuine cultural exchange, supporting local communities, and understanding the harmonious coexistence between people and wildlife.
