Weddings and Celebrations

From dancers to dinners here are just a few ideas of how you can get the party started!

Maasai Dancers
For a traditional celebration the Maasai dancers perform their traditional song and dance, which involves the men jumping in the centre of a circle formed by other Maasai warriors. This is traditionally performed to try and impress the young women with their athleticism!
