Distinctive in spirit and design, Kitengela Hot Glass is located on the edge of Kenyan wilderness, 50 minutes (traffic permitting) from Nairobi city centre. People come from all over the world to visit, drawn by the magical and antique art of glassblowing.
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 watch the magic of glassblowing as it happens. Sip cappuccino at a funky, chunky mosaic table in the outdoor café. Surround yourself in a secret garden of sculpture and furniture and living designs that enchant and inspire.
