The tour starts by picking you from Nairobi Airport or Hotel, we will be driven to Main Kibera slum, visit the Soweto Village homesteads, and then continue to the Curio (handcrafts) Workshop where you will witness how those living in the Kibera slums are innovative in making ornaments out of animal bones. Continue with visits of the Nursery schools and pass by to see the water vendor and the shower shop as you meet other slum dwellers mingling with you as they carry on with their daily chores. Turn right past the roadside fish mongers into the Biogas plant, the only one of its kind in Africa which will use human waste as its raw material in the production of Biogas which will be used as cooking gas as well as lighting about 200 households once it is accomplished and commissioned. Proceed to one of the community based School run with the donations from well wishers which is a real highlight of Kibera schools. You will then be escorted back to airport or Nairobi Hotel/Home.

This is a 100% immersive experience. Be prepared to be changed. You should be able to walk on uneven surfaces. Our guide was a prior slum resident and answered all our questions.
