Full Day Kibera Slum Tour

What a privilege to see the lives of the ordinary people in Nairobi. Elijah was a lovely guide. Taking me to his home and to meet with his mother. If you can take a break from all the touristy things and get a glimpse of what life is really like for the workers of Nairobi. I realised what a safe place Kibera is full of lovely people finding ingenious ways to make a living. And women making a difference for each other. This is a different kind of tour that opened my eyes to the other side of life in Nairobi

Overall, it is worth to visit there with the trusted guide. We visited little children‘s school and also children’s music band and could hear their performances!! It was really amazing and forgettable experience for us. Thank you Lucas and his friend taking us such a special tour!!

This tour was great. Lucas my guide had grown up here so knew where to take me and what to see. He spent time explaining what daily life is like and ensuring my need were met.

Booked the tour one our before the start via Revolut. Got clear instructions and guide was waiting me at the mall. Tour guide was super friendly and knew the place like his own pockets. He told me about history of Kibera and we even visited his home. Thank you for having me!

Very eye-opening and informative trip - Elijah was a wealth of local knowledge and the whole team were so friendly. Would highly recommend to anyone who wants to see the other side of Nairobi.

Educational experience that help you understand the other side of Kenya. Elijah has been on time, patient, and extremely kind to show me the lifehood and history of his community. Was a privilige to see some of the projects such as the bone making shop, power woman to raise hiv awereness, and the lovely school. Also Elijah mom's chai is really good. Would advise you to bring extra cash for donations or items support. Not suitable to people who are sensitive to smell or extreme dirty conditions. Watch out for phone snatching as well. Thanks Elijah and your mom, good to see your brother too.

A must see in Kenya. As managing as the Safari and villages are, it is also important to explore the slums. It’s a very humble and eye opening experience. Would definitely recommend to anyone to do

I came across this tour on my way from Uganda in May. The guide arranged for a meeting at Greenhouse mall where the tour starts. The experience was eye opening. The people in kibera are very warm and friendly. You get to see an open air market children in a school and also share a moment with the guides family. Totally worth it.

It was really perfect and felt very safe, even if I was alone. If you want a really genuine experience book the tour. There wasn't any point where I felt wrong and I glad I did even if originally thought it would be a bit unfriendly to the people who live in kibera to do a "slum tour". In the end everybody was nice to me and I don't want to miss the things I have experienced there.

It was great seeing the old colonial railway line, visiting a school and donating for the women's group. Visiting the slum was a great experience for our kids. Everyone can take part in making a difference. Good job Effie and Elijah

The trip was amazing. It exceeded our expectations. At first we were afraid of the idea but Lucas and effie made us feel comfortable and safe. They support a school called Hope and shine that is run through donations. Your kind support is very helpful. Cheers hope to visit again soon

The slum Kibera walk tour was a memorable experience. We spent time in a class with children singing learning and sharing a meal all together. We met and talked to local people However I gave a 3 stars because the guide didn’t know so much about the history of Kenya/Nairobi, and because I learnt that a full day is about 4 hours instead of 6 hours mentioned on the platform. And also we didn’t have the lunch as promised in the description

I really loved how interesting the tour is. The people of kibera are very welcoming and friendly. It changed my perception of the slum. Elijah was an excellent guide. This tour is a five star and anyone should take part. Cheers guys.

Hey Lucas, thanks alot for the wonderful tour we had yesterday. Continue doing your great works in the slum. It was really great to see the kids and visit your home

The tour is generally interesting and fun. A perfect way to view nairobi from a different angle. I recommend the tour to anyone visiting Nairobi.

I have many places in Nairobi but none of them got more love than kibera. Lucas, an experienced local guide did an amazing job at making us feel the love of his neighborhood. He also helps the community through a local school that helps in maximizing the potential of the kids in the kindergerten. I recommend this tour to anyone visiting nairobi. Cheers Lucas.

Excellent customer interaction....I loved how the tour guides elaborated different activities....awesome I would like to come back and interact with same tour guides....

Lucas was an excellent guide in the tour of Kibera. The tour changed my negative impression of the slum. His love for was clear and he shared both his home, family, friends and many initiatives including Hope and Shine Kibera center. The community is vibrant and breaming as as being difficulty and challenging. I'd recommend this tour to anyone visiting Nairobi. ❤️👍

Take a break from the 4 star hotels and museums for a day and experience an eye-opening, heart-tugging day to learn how some of the less-fortunate citizens live. My guide Lucas was a pleasant, intelligent and lovely young man who showed me the obvious poverty and struggle of the slums, but also introduced me to many of the lovely people who live there with pride and struggle daily to make it better. Highlights were meals with the locals, and a visit to a new school dedicated to educating the kids in the hope of a better future for them. This tour is not for everyone. But if you want to learn, feel and perhaps make a small difference in the lives of others, this is a profound and unique opportunity to do so. Thank you Lucas, my new friend!

All through fantastic trip. Lucas and Elijah are such nice and cute guys. We heard about the history of Kibera and met the friendly and hospitable residents of the slum. Visits at power women, markets, bone workshop, school etc. - In addition we were at home at Elijah's house and met his family + his mother's house for tea and a taste of her food. You will meet Hearty and warm people everywhere. You will also meet many welcoming and happy children, so remember to buy plenty of candy. We divided 130 pads for the 5 hours of the trip and could have had 100 more. You get all my warmest recommendations - but we missed a trip in a matatu - could have been mega cool to try Thank you very much for the coolest trip and huge Kram from Denmark
