Distinctive in spirit and design, Kitengela Glass is located on the edge of true Kenyan wilderness, 50 minutes (traffic permitting) from Nairobi city centre towards Ongata Rongai. People come from all over the world to visit, drawn by the antique art of glassblowing and the allure of this enchanting place.

Travel down onto the plains across rutted roads through scrubland & a ravine and you will be transported into another space and time. 

Step into the workshops to discover art and experience first hand the magic of glassblowing as it happens. Sip cappuccino at a funky, chunky mosaic table in the outdoor café. Surround yourself in a secret wonderland of sculpture, furniture & living designs that captivate and inspire.
