Bomas
of Kenya offers you "Kenya in a miniature".
It lets you see the wonderful diversity of cultures
that make up Kenya. The term Bomas, meaning "homestead",
are displayed on your tour; each represent one of
Kenya's major ethnic groups, and is built to the original
traditional architecture of an African home as built
by the ancestors. A Boma is a homestead and just a
few kilometers from Nairobi, we have the Bomas of
Kenya. Here you will experience the rich culture of
Kenya’s 42 different ethnic groups as they live
on their day-to-day basis. This is clearly demonstrated
through traditional dances, music, song, and folklore.
There is a splendid arena where acrobatic shows are
performed.

Bomas
of Kenya
Bomas of Kenya was
established by the Kenyan Government to preserve,
maintain and promote rich and diverse cultural values
of various groups of Kenya, and to act as a tourist
attraction center. Almost all aspects of Kenyan culture
are displayed, from living styles, crafts, music and
dancing. You can view traditional villages representing
the lifestyle of ethnic groups such as Kikuyu, Kalenjin,
Luhya, Taita, Maasai, Kamba, Kisii, Kuria, Mijikenda
and Luo.
Over 30 traditional dancers perform daily in a unique
spectacular theater, the biggest in Africa which seats
3,500 people. Dancers representing different ethnic
tribes dance across the stage in a vibrant kaleidoscope
rhythm and hue. Proud Maasai warriors vault skywards
as they woo their maidens with chanting cries and
twirling spears. There are other facilities available
such as two large separable halls accommodating up
to 2,500 and 4,000 people, Picnic sites, Outdoor Soccer
and Volleyball grounds.
