On the first day of your ride, you will start from Simba Farm Lodge to Osiligilai Maasai Lodge, covering a distance of 53 kilometers. Today you’re advised to start early at 7:00 am because you may have enough time to watch animals on your way. The first ride will take you through the big wheat plantations, heading north and westwards we ride through rolling hills with breathtaking views of Mt. Kilimanjaro and Mt. Meru. Keep an eye out as there is a chance, you will spot some wildlife during our ride. Tonight, we will spend the night at Osiligilai Maasai-Village. This is a planned village and all the houses are built the traditional way with local and natural materials. By staying in this village, we learn authentic Maasai life and culture without destroying the Maasai native homes, behaviors and environment. We’ll have lunch at the lodge, dinner and campfire in the evening where Maasai ceremonies will be performed.
