Enjoy a visit to a traditional Maasai Village and discover their “way of life” as it was a hundred years ago and still is today. The Maasai are an old nomadic tribe that lives in harmony with nature and is one of the few remaining tribes in Kenya that tends to hold on to their traditions. Your guide will transfer you to/from the village.
Please note that we support the local community in the area with this village visit as most proceeds will go to them directly. Ask the Manager for more information and how to book.
As part of Soroi Luxury Migration Camp's commitment to conservation and sustainability, we are actively fighting deforestation in the Mara ecosystem. We invite guests to take a hands-on approach and participate in this activity, which is suitable for young and old. The cost is for the purchasing of endemic trees.
The Trust is located right on the edge of the Maasai Mara National Reserve in the little town of Sekenani. The Olmalaika Home - is a safe haven for girls under the age of 12 yrs all the way down to newborns that have endured trauma in their lives, such as female genital mutilation, childhood marriage, rape, incest, assault, abuse, abandonment, etc. The Trust not only provides a safe and loving home where they can find healing but also enables them to get their education.
On weekends and holidays, you can visit the home and spend time with the girls, listen to them sing and dance, participate in a typical "day of the girl child" where you might wash clothes in the river, make chapatis, drink some tea made over the fire in their traditional manyatta or simply allow them to teach you how to make a beaded bracelet to take home. On weekdays, when they are in school, you can visit the home and meet the staff, play or feed the babies, hear about the girl's stories, and possibly sample some fresh fruit or vegetables from their garden. The Trust is dependent on donations but is working on becoming self-sustaining by harvesting and selling honey from their own hives and through the Olmalaika Trust Days for Girls Enterprise - where the staff makes fabric reusable menstrual kits. Each kit purchased is given to school girls in Kenya so that no girl will miss school because of her period.
An exciting adventure awaits the young ones at Mara Bush Camp with various activities conducted by our Maasai guide and our Camp Manager. The children will have a rare opportunity to learn the Maasai ways of life and their daily chores such as cooking African food, the art of stringing real Maasai beads, playing typical board games, listening to African stories, reading Children story books available in both English & German as well as playing with African toys. Parents are encouraged to discuss the activities beforehand with our Camp Manager.
