Busy, popular Masai markets are held every Tuesday and souvenirs on offer include beaded jewellery, gourds, baskets and other Masai crafts. Bargaining is the norm and you can expect at least 50% off on the original price

For more classy reminders of your trip, Elmenteita Weavers offer hand-woven rugs, baskets, wraps and carpets. The quality is excellent and very different from the usual touristy tat.

For more variety, City Market at Koinange Street spreads across quite a range of areas. There's a fish and meat market, flower stalls, fruit and vegetable stalls. If you’re looking to buy souvenirs, there are Congolese and West African wooden masks and carvings for sale, as well as all the usual baskets, wooden and soap stone carvings, jewellery, beaded sandles and paintings etc. for sale.
