About Makoyo Village
Farm Stay, Wildlife & Bantu Culture in Makueni County
Makoyo Village began as a conversation under a mango tree — a group of Kasikeu farmers asking how tourism could serve, not extract from, their land.
Today we welcome guests, students and researchers into a working farm, a wildlife corridor and a cultural hub that puts community ownership, soil health and storytelling at the centre.This is not a resort. It is not a safari lodge. It is something rarer: a living, breathing community where culture, nature, and genuine hospitality grow from the same roots.
