This is a meticulously designed expedition that offers both personality and merit. Shopping for keepsakes in Kenya can be challenging, given the rampant malpractice in uncontrolled open markets and the wide availability of inferior quality merchandise. Tread softly on this comprehensive private journey, with your personal driver/guide ready to assist with language translation, handle weighty goods, and provide counsel when needed. A standard trip comprises visits to four distinguished outlets: Kobe Beads Factory, Utamaduni Crafts Centre, Golden Eagle Art Gallery, and Aqeeq Galleria. Our journey is explicitly designed to give you the pleasing opportunity of purchasing a precious gem in our visit to the gemstone shop. The gemstones variety includes Tanzanite garnet, Amethyst, Rubies, Red Garnets, and Aquamarine, all sourced from mines in Kenya & East Africa. Souvenirs are an affectionate way to recall your travel encounter as they carry a sentimental value to you and your loved ones.
