You might have had numerous encounters with the Maasai people while on safaris but be assured that these might not be the authentic Maasai culture experience. Even if they were the real Maasais, they might have been putting up a show for you as they receive tourists daily.
In this tour, you get to interact with the authentic Maasai's day-to-day life far away from the safaris and the National parks.
This becomes an experience more than a tour as you do the things maasais do daily. You get to appreciate your conventional comfortable life more. From cooking ugali in a manyatta, beadwork, lighting a fire traditionally using sticks and cow dung, milking a goat, dancing, singing and jumping with the Maasai people, you get to do them all.

This was one of the best days of my life. It was incredible to meet members of Masai community and spend a day with them, being able to ask them questions. Our guide Simon was just amazing, he explained everything with patience. I also did Nairobi walking tour with him, that was amazing! Greeting Simon!

The people of the Maasai Village were extremely welcoming and warm. We very much enjoyed our time with them. Our guide, Simon, was equally as informative and welcoming and ensured we were comfortable at all times. He took wonderful pictures and videos for us so that we could focus on the experience. Highly recommended.

This was an amazing experience for our group of friends and family. The Masai villagers were warm and welcoming. Our guide Simon was incredibly informative. We went on a Monday so we got to experience the livestock market as well.

I highly recommend this tour. My guide Dennis was friendly, engaging and very knowledgeable. I was able to learn how to make a piece of jewelry with the women, milk and herd the sheep, watch the men make a fire, prepare a meal of ugali and dance with the tribe. It was amazing to learn about and experience a bit of their culture. I would suggest covering your head with a hat or scarf before entering the manyatta (hut) to prevent the smell of smoke from getting in your hair.

We really enjoyed our time spent at the Masai Village. It was it was nice to experience the lives of these people. However, two hours there and two hours back was extreme.

Fantastic Maasai village experience. You can tell the company, Motherland Diaries, spent a lot of time coordinating with the village to ensure an awesome experience. The villagers were enthusiastic in their welcome and it was truly a hands on experience.
Simon, the guide, was amazing. I was truly impressed with his knowledge and enthusiasm. His input and preparation itself ensured a great time was had. I cannot say enough good things about Simon. Kudos for a job well done
I was very impressed with the tour operator, Motherland Diaries. I was so impressed I did a follow on Nairobi City Walking Tour with them on a different day - it, as expected, was a fantastic as well

This was such a fun, unique experience that we truly enjoyed. Dennis is a great guide and it's good to know that part of the ticket cost supports the villagers in sustainable ways. We went with a toddler and Dennis and everyone were very accommodating. We learned to milk a goat, cook ugali, start a fire and make beaded jewelry. Highly reccomend!

Spending a day with the Maasai village people was a profound and enriching experience that offered a deep dive into their vibrant culture and way of life. From learning the intricate art of beading, where each colorful bead tells a story of tradition and heritage, to mastering the culinary secrets of Maasai cuisine through hands-on cooking lessons, every moment was filled with discovery and connection. Engaging in the timeless practice of herding alongside Maasai warriors, I gained a newfound appreciation for their intimate relationship with the land and animals. And when the rhythmic beats of Maasai dance filled the air, I couldn't help but join in, feeling the pulse of centuries-old traditions coursing through my veins. This immersive day left me humbled, inspired, and deeply grateful for the opportunity to walk in the footsteps of the Maasai people, whose resilience, wisdom, and hospitality touched my heart in ways I'll never forget.
