What to expect

Kibera with Vincent

Kibera is one of Nairobi's most talked-about neighborhoods, and this guided tour with Vincent focuses on everyday life as seen by someone born and raised in the community.

Features

• Your guided tour of Kibera with local resident Vincent gives you direct insight into how the community works, with context shaped by his own experience growing up there.
• Time inside Kibera includes a visit to a local home, where you see domestic spaces and daily routines up close rather than from the outside only.
• The experience is a real Kibera tour with a local born and raised in the community, so conversations, walking routes, and stops are chosen to reflect genuine local perspectives.
• Starting from Yaya shopping center, you ride in a public vehicle with Vincent, which lets you share the same transport many Kibera residents use and understand how people move between the neighborhood and the rest of Nairobi.
