Good place for buying cultural items though they are highly priced. Some of the things like the so called gold ornaments are of very poor quality. Soapstone items are well made and of very high quality.

Mixed feelings when going there as foreigners. However, you just need to be polite in saying now even when lots of sellers are coming close to you and grab your hand. One tried to play the racist card when I sent him away and said, I wanna go alone thru the market. He meant, whether it has something to do with his color which I denied. Such a stupid statement. However, he was not the only one who where following us and didn’t know when to stop. BUT in general if you stay calm and keep going you can find some nice stuff and find great bargains too. Of course there are also nice people and you can chat with them in a normal way. Yes, you can go alone as a foreigner. Just be clear and smile when denying their offers. Simple.

"Masai Market offers a vibrant and culturally immersive shopping experience in Nairobi. With its colorful array of handcrafted goods, from traditional Maasai beadwork to intricate wood carvings and vibrant textiles, the market is a treasure trove for those seeking unique souvenirs and gifts. Luckily, my Kenyan friend accompanied me and I was shocked at the level of bargaining she did for me, almost 3-4times less than what I would’ve paid Navigating through the bustling stalls, visitors are greeted by friendly vendors showcasing their artisanal skills and sharing stories behind their creations. While bargaining is expected, the prices are generally reasonable, allowing shoppers to support local artisans while snagging a bargain. Whether you're a tourist looking for authentic Kenyan crafts or a local in search of one-of-a-kind finds, Masai Market offers an enriching and memorable shopping experience that celebrates the rich cultural heritage of Kenya.

A 'not to be missed' location in Nairobi. Local handicrafts, clothing, paintings, jewellery, wood carvings, and so much more. Be prepared to barter! The first price is rarely the best price. So much of Kenya's culture is right here. Note - the market is not open every day. Check with your accommodation reception.

A great place to meet and talk to local people who are very friendly and hospitable as well as buying souvenirs. Lots of haggling though, so make sure to give it more time than expected. Also be patient in haggling to get better prices
