About Us

Zebra Coffeeshop is intentionally designed to feel like a haven existing a step away from the Maasai Mara, yet celebrates its interconnection with the land, wildlife, and it’s people. Zebra Coffee is part of the Dragon Trails impact network that supports entrepreneurs and communities to create new pathways to positively impact their environment and society. Zebra Coffee Shop is not just a boutique, specialty coffee experience, it is also a training site for students at the Nashulai Conservancy College to engage in hospitality training.
