Kibera
Kibera is Africa’s second largest informal settlement after Soweto, South Africa. With an estimated one million inhabitants drawn from across the entire East Africa crowded in a 2.5 sq. KM piece of land, Kibera presents you a unique opportunity to experience the other Kenya that is less talked about but that’s full of promise. Erick, our founder, himself lived in Kibera for sometime as he was trying to get professional foothold and has many relatives still living there. Several prominent international figures and celebrities have visited Kibera over the past few years including President Obama, Ban Ki Moon (former UN Secretary General), Gordon Brown (former British Prime Minister) and Bono amongst others to see for themselves this unique settlement ecosystem. You will have opportunity to also see several UN and NGO projects covering housing (slum upgrading), education and health amongst others currently ongoing in the slum geared toward poverty alleviation.
Our package gives you a special opportunity to understand the local economy and create employment for our professional youth guides from the slums.
