Its a good place to buy souvenirs. The shops pretty much carry similar products. Some that are actually made in Tanzania but quite a number them are made outside the country. If you are looking to give your apartment or office or home an East African touch there is definitely something at this market to suit that
The Masai market is well worth visiting to buy some traditional artefacts and crafts. They have a diverse and beautiful range of products. The prices are good value as long as you are patient and prepared to negotiate - if not, you will not get good value unfortunately. It is also difficult to see all the stalls as many of the store owners are also quite relentless in trying to persuade you to 'step inside' to 'bless their stall'. I curtailed my shopping without buying all the things I was interested in, because this got pretty tiring! I will go again hopefully, but will have a plan to manage the excessive level of attention!
I say, don't buy souvenirs at the airport. Use that money at the M.M.C.. I purchased some really well crafted handmade items for a reasonable price. The salespeople at each booth that I visited were kind, knowledgeable and patient.
Lots of interesting curios , masks and beaded jewellery. Some stores run by the artisans and the others just traders. I would rather buy from the artisan stores. (Pictures) Don't offer any prices but ask for their final price. Visit many stores for the best prices. Haggle..haggle...haggle.. got merchandise originally priced at 160 tsh for 60 tsh Merchandise offered in one store for $25 as his final price and 2 shops down for $10 as the starting price... Scan the market before you make a decision.
Beautiful handmade ebony carvings of Masai and African animals and lot of other items like clothes, slippers, handbags, schoolbags, necklaces and household items to choose from. The shopkeepers are very friendly and welcoming. Ample of parking space too.
