Kibera Slum Tour
Description
On the outskirts of Nairobi, Kibera is at once part of one of Africa’s most developed cities and at the same times stands apart from it. Yes, there is a lot of poverty here, but there’s also a sense of freedom.
Tour Options
Itinerary
The tour takes 3 to 4 hours including 2 to 3 hours walk. You can do the tour in the morning or afternoon. You will be able to visit different places including an orphanage/school built by ‘mama Tunza’. Meet this impressive woman and look at her work in the childrens home. A bead factory: in Kibera everything is being reused and so are also the bones from the butcher. See how these bones turn into beads. You will also have a chance to visit a typical Kibera-house. Feel welcome in one of the houses in Kibera and ask your questions about the day-to-day live in Kibera. You will also visit the biogas center: a fantastic view over Kibera and picture-point. You can see that also human waste is not wasted here.

You absolutely should not miss this experience. Life-changing. Stephen the tour guide was phenomenal- efficient, personable and knowledgeable. My Kibera slum tour guide Collins allowed entry into his world—the living spaces, schools, markets and most importantly the special people that inhabit Kibera. Don’t miss this.
