Middag Kibera Slum Tour
Beschrijving
Met dit tourpakket kan de reiziger de stad van de hoop verkennen tijdens een middagtour. Deze tour is uniek omdat je in staat bent om de uitbundigheid van de sloppenwijk te ervaren op zijn piekuren. Kibera is een van de weinige sloppenwijken in de wereld die vrede, liefde en eenheid hooghoudt en is een plek waar sociale en artistieke ondernemingen kunnen evolueren buiten de grenzen van een meer formele regeling.
Rondreisopties
Reisroute
Onze geaccrediteerde gids zal je ontmoeten in Greenhouse Mall langs Ngong Road en je meenemen door een wandeltocht rond de grootste stedelijke sloppenwijk ter wereld. Tijdens de tour worden reizigers getrakteerd op een wandeling door de Toi-markt, de op een na grootste openluchtmarkt in Nairobi en die dient als de ruggengraat van de economie van Kibera. Andere opmerkelijke tourpunten zijn Kibera Pride weeshuis met ruim 25 kwetsbare kinderen uit de sloppenwijk, Victorious Bone Craft-groep die gespecialiseerd is in het recyclen van botten voor huisdieren om sieraden te maken, Power Women Group en Shop, een groep vrouwen die het slachtoffer zijn van HIV / AIDS. Luister naar hun verhalen en hoe ze de gemeenschap beïnvloeden door bewustwording te creëren over dezelfde ziekte. Bezoek Hope and Shine Kibera Center, de thuisbasis van talentontwikkeling in sloppenwijken. Reizigers kunnen school- en kinderartikelen zoals pennen, boeken, kleurpotloden meenemen. Men zal ook in staat zijn om vrijwilligerswerk te doen op de school en met kinderen aan kunstwerken en talentontwikkeling te werken. Zet een glimlach op het gezicht van een kind.

I had an incredibly moving and memorable experience visiting Kibera, guided by Elijah and organised by Lucas. From start to finish, it felt authentic, respectful, and genuinely insightful. What stood out most to me was the contrast between what you might expect and what you actually find. There is a real sense of order within the chaos — from the tidy, well-organised market to the intricate maze of streets, everything has its place and rhythm. It completely reshaped my perception. The people we met were warm, welcoming, and full of life. The children in particular were some of the most polite, kind, and joyful I’ve ever encountered. I was fortunate enough to spend time at a school run by my guides, and that was easily one of the most profound and humbling moments of the entire trip. Around every corner, there was another story — not of hardship alone, but of resilience, community, and hope. I would highly recommend this experience to anyone looking to better understand Nairobi beyond the surface, in a way that is both eye-opening and deeply human.
The Kibera Slum tour was so educational and eye opening. Lucas did a fantastic job leading us through his neighborhood and explaining about the hardships and resilience of its people. The people of Kibera are so special and welcoming. The tour involved a lot of walking on uneven surfaces but well worth it.
I had a wonderful time with Lucas on this tour, learning all about Kibera. This is a walking tour, so you should come prepared to walk a lot (which is something I really enjoyed, but others should be aware before booking). You should also bring water and cash as he does take you to a couple different places to be able to purchase items made by some of the local people. I would definitely recommend this tour to others if you are trying to get a real picture of life in Kibera.
Thank you for the kind review and word Melissa. It was great to meet you and to share stories and insights. Happy to host you again in the future
Such a memorable experience! The tour guides Lucas and Elijah were extremely professional yet offered a personal touch to the experience. They were very knowledgeable, answered every questions we had. Everyone should see Kibera with these guides. I’ve been on other similar tours and they were all good but this one was excellent! 10 out of 10. Bring water, camera, some cash and walking shoes. I did get some locally made jewelry from recycled materials. Enjoy and be ready for the little Kibera residents to steal your heart!
Thank you so much for the kind review and words. It was more than a pleasure to have hosted Kasia and Jan. I really hope you come again soon. Best regards, Lucas.

Good tour. But I'm left a bit orphaned: what should I think about this? Who should tackle this?
Bedankt voor de mooie recensie Bart. Ik waardeer de liefde die je ons toonde. Liefde zal het aanpakken
The Kibera Slum Tour was truly a memorable experience. Our guides were not only knowledgeable, but incredibly friendly, making sure we felt safe throughout our visit. What truly touched us was the optimism and positive attitude of the Kibera residents. Despite the challenges they face daily, their spirit and resilience shine through, offering a lesson in hope and perseverance. I'd highly recommend to anyone looking for a genuine and profound connection.
