5 Days
This is the one Insight Kenya trip that gives the cultural side equal weight with the wildlife, and it is the only one that spends a full working day in Nairobi itself. Day two moves between the Nairobi National Museum, the Kazuri women’s bead cooperative and Bomas of Kenya for the tribal music and dance performances. The Mara half then builds in two manyatta visits rather than one, with the second offering hands-on beadwork, livestock herding and Maasai dancing. A game drive fills the morning between them, and there is time for the Maasai Market in Nairobi before departure if the flight allows. No price is published.
Overview
A full day of Nairobi's museums, craft cooperatives and Bomas of Kenya before heading to the Masai Mara for game drives and two separate visits to a Maasai manyatta.
