When visiting the Samburu people, the women will show all of their goods on their 'market'. There are at least 30 stalls, so choose wisely.
What to buy: I bought myself a typical Samburu neckjewel, high quality and low price (but you do have to negotiate).
What to pay: Try to pay 60 % of their first price.
For my necklace I paid Ksh 35 000 and the first price was Ksh 70 000. A bargain! You'll find this kind of jewelry elsewhere, more expensive and off lower quality.
