Walking in the African bush gives you the opportunity to experience Africa from the ground whilst being in the safe hands of your professional Maasai warrior guide. You don’t have to be super fit, we can tailor the walk according to your abilities and fitness level.

 

By joining us on a walk, you will get to notice all the little things available in nature, that you would normally just walk past.       

These small details that are overlooked on game drives become more apparent from the slower pace and lower angle of being on foot.

 

Think of the amazing engineering skills and cooperative work involved in the creation of a termite mound, for instance. Bird calls, tracks, insects, plants & geology. Everything takes on more significance and you gain a much deeper understanding of your environment.

​

Bush walks take you to places inaccessible to vehicles, enabling you to experience and interact with your surroundings in a more rounded way. Whether it’s appreciating a particularly fabulous panorama, studying a up close or spending time learning how to archery or throwing a traditional Maasai spear, going on our Maasai Wilderness Experience will be an unique experience not soon to forget. 

   

Safari bushwalks enhance your awareness and knowledge of what is going on around you as you are engaging all five senses on a heightened level. The tempting smell and uses of a white bush, the velvety feel of an acacia seed pod, the fibrous taste of mother-in-law’s tongue root, the thrilling sight of the possibility of spotting an animal on foot – it’s exhilarating!

 

Our Maasai Wilderness Experience is really hands on, as it offers a variety of new experiences all in one. You will learn to do archery with the Maasai

and get the opportunity to learn how to recognize animal footprints and bird sounds on foot. The Maasai Wilderness Experience has an additional focus on the medicinal uses of plants and their significance in the Maasai culture and their survival in the African bush throughout the years.
