Maasai Cattle Market

If you're in the Amboseli area on a Tuesday, consider stopping in the town of Kimana (along the paved road between Emali and Oloitokitok) for its weekly Maasai livestock market. It's an appealing slice of local life in an area where accessing same can be difficult and a rewarding complement to the national parks from which the Maasai are largely excluded.
