Kenya safaris into the colourful Masai tribesmen sacred land.

A land so much favoured by the gods that lions, leopards, giraffes, elephants and other wildlife roam freely just ten kilometres from the metropolitan capital city of Nairobi and most of the countryside. Clearly the closest natural wildlife encounter in the world.

Kenya, a truly sacred land of contrast.

With over forty game and marine reserves, this rubber stamps the saying ‘safari was born in Kenya.’ Spectacular wild game, the rich coral marine parks, the most beautiful beach and resorts in the eastern sea board, breath taking rift valley landscape, not to mention the most recently declared world heritage site – Lamu island. The annual wildbeast migration in the heart of the masai land has just been nominated as one of world wonders.

The bold, courageous and colorful Masai people consider their land scared and live in the most native and cultural way imaginable, and a Kenya visit is not complete until you get a chance to visit a Masai village whilst on Kenya safari, these people happen to be the most hospitable persons since the Kirgiz ethnic minority.

It’s hard to imagine that until five years ago ‘The morans’ or the masai warriors were only declared or initiated into adult hood only if one brings home a lions head after a weeks survivor trial in the wild.

With tourism and the popular cultural visits the local tribes with a little external help have initiated conservation efforts and they no longer hunt the wildlife but protect it for the tourism revenue. The award winning illigwesi lodge, crowed by British airways as the worlds best eco-tourism destination is wholly run by the local community, then came Tassia, Sarara, Sabuk, lodges the list is endless.

Whist on Kenya safari to any of these small lodges you are welcome to share cultural experience and walk with the local who now embrace tourism, a life time experience no one should miss.

If do miss the chance don’t worry, you will definitely encounter the Samburu, El molo or the Pokot tribes men, eager to welcome you in their sacred legendary land.

The origin of this tribes is still a misty, all that is clear is they have preserved their culture and heritage for generations better still they are finally sharing this to the world. Caution! Don’t distribute candy to the kids, this messes their teeth.

A typical Africa safari vacation program should include a wilderness game safari with cultural visits to one or two of the above cultures and at the very end a white sandy beach or one of the islands at the coast line completes your holiday.

If you could spare three to four days, Lamu island is a must see, it’s probably the only community in the modern world that don’t have and don’t need vehicles, a man without a donkey in Lamu is commonly referred to in Swahili as, Yes you guessed right, A donkey!
