Upon arrival you will be entertained by traditional dancers and acrobats. The Bomas of Kenya also has a wonderful display of mud huts and traditional Kenyan homesteads, which you will visit after the entertainment. It’s the ideal place to bring energetic children as they can freely run in and out of the traditional houses and mud huts, climb up ladders, and generally have a wonderfully active time. These traditional houses are set out in clusters according to the region. The homes are grouped with the first wife's hut, second wife's hut, granary, etc., and you can see where the livestock are kept and the enormous variety between the huts. This is a really rewarding and informative tour. After the cultural experience depart for your Nairobi hotel.
