Incredible tour of Africa's largest slum. We'll take you to see what outsiders don't see & you'll get a true experience of what life is like for people living here. You'll see social innovation & social change being created by people living in Kibera for people in Kibera.
In fact, even your tour guide was born and raised right here in Kibera. His name is Diddy & he's my best friend & roommate here. He'll give you all the local insights into culture & life here.
You'll see a school, up-cycled artisan goods that create youth employment, local art & street graffiti, a biogas project & other urban sanitation projects, etc.
Of course, you'll get an areal view, hang out with locals, get your shoes shined, try local food & drinks (optional), and even try your hand at some typical jobs & activities such as fetching water in a jerry can, preparing simple foodstuffs for sell on the street, braiding hair, etc. You'll also get to hang out inside someone's house!
This is the best insider look at life at the bottom of the pyramid in Kibera & quite possibly the world!
Of course, you'll be completely safe the entire time. Kibera is actually quite safe during the day & when you're with Diddy, you're golden. You'll quickly find out that he's quite famous here & know's everyone.
