Ewangan

Top choice in Masai Mara


A traditional Maasai manyatta (village) 2km north of Sekenani Gate, offering a homestay with the Maasai. During your stay you'll help with daily chores such as milking the cows and goats, learn skills such as jewellery making and enjoy nature walks with a Maasai guide. At least 25% of your money goes to help support local community projects.

Accommodation is very basic, but it's all very cosy and the food is excellent. It's a particularly fun experience for children (we've stayed there with a four year old and an 18 month old and they much preferred this to the fancy lodges and wildlife drives).
