•  The Craft Manyatta

The manyatta (village) has been built by the women of the community totally from local traditional materials. It is open to guests to take part in and learn about the Maasai culture. The songs and dance of the women and the warrior group add colourful and energetic entertainment. Guests will learn about the uses of local medicinal herbs, traditional cooking and food including the Maasai practice of taking blood from a cow, childcare practices, house building techniques, animal husbandry, fire lighting, musical instrument and weapons making, games such as mbao, the complex gambling systems of the wazee (elders), and beadwork. Guests will have an opportunity to support the women further through purchase of beads and other artefacts.
