The Cultural tour is an alternative way of tourism that enables a tourist to experience, share and exchange ideas of the lifestyle of other people including customs, tradition and culture.

You are going to visit Maasai villages. For a day tour, we usually visit a village called Ilkiding’a. It is situated about 4.5 km away from Arusha town. You will see the beautiful Mt.Meru (4556 m) so close to you!
Maasai are usually known as nomads, but you will be surprised to see them there in Ilkiding’a with lots of vegetable fields.
The local guide and the Maasai elder will explain more about history, environment, culture and people of the village during the tour.
