Description
Kibera is the largest slum in Africa. It is located in the southwest part of NAIROBI about 5 to 7 km from the city centre.
They are over 700,000 people living in Kibera slum.
The aim for organising this tour is to raise awareness about the communities real living conditions while breaking common stereotypes. I seek to promote cultural exchange and understanding through respectful interaction between visitors and residence. The tour also aims to support community development by creating income and opportunities for local people.

1. Open air market visit.
