Immerse yourself in a unique Samburu tradition. Warriors form a human chain to descend into wells dug deep in dry riverbeds to fetch the precious resource - water. They water their animals and sing beautiful songs to strengthen their bond. The singing provides rhythm and motivation for the warriors not to tire.
