There's a lot of nice souvenirs here. However some are overpriced as compared to local maasai market. The arrangement is nice and the staff very polite.

Fantastic souvenir shop with many local products. I bought several beads-containers, wooden bowl, woven basket. Came back twice as there were so many things to check out.

Our safari group visited twice and we bought some wonderful gifts - on the second visit our safari group bought a large jewelry box with an acacia tree and elephant silhouettes on the top, as a thank-you gift to Chris and Jess Bray, our safari tour leaders.

Pay by cash or card. Its on the ground floor of Nanyuki Mall, in Nanyuki. Park inside the mall's secure carpark, and you can also visit the banks, ATMs, grocery store, and other shops in the centre. Fairly clean toilets are available on the ground floor at the far left end as you're facing the centre, for 10 ksh.…
