Spend A Day with the Maasai Tribe
A Maasai village consists of several houses (Bomas) made of mud and cow dung, surrounded by fencing to protect their cattle from lions & other predators. Apart from their looks and whereabouts, the Maasai are known for their highly skilled warriors and their cattle-herding abilities. In fact, in Maasai culture, a man’s wealth is measured in terms of cattle and children. Spend A Day with the Maasai Tribe
A herd of 50 cattle is a respectable amount, and the more children, the better. Oh, and they drink blood!
They are a pretty cool group of people, and you can spend time with them. They can teach you how to dance and jump in their traditional way.
You can fully experience their lifestyle by visiting their Maasai village homes, and even help them milk their cows. Those who are brave enough can even watch a session of blood drinking, which is a traditional practice among the Maasai people.
