Explore Kibera, Africa's largest slum, with a local guide who is a social entrepreneur and a non-profit founder. 50% of the booking fees from this experience helps in paying school fees for needy kids
Join a guided tour of Kibera, the largest slum in Africa, and one of the largest in the world.
We are a team of 4 local guides namely; ERICK, SAMUEL, BENTER and JACK. We were all born, raised and still live here in Kibera Community. We have first-hand insights into the authentic daily life in the Kibera neighborhood. This tour enables guests to learn more about the local community's way of life/culture and the history of Kibera community. The income generated from the booking fees, helps us in paying school fees for orphans and vulnerable kids here in the slum and funding other more social projects here in Kibera Community. We run a social impact tour business called OAC Kenya Tours (www.oackenya.weebly.com), a vehicle for positive change. Join us in our journey towards social impact, where every booking you make helps to uplift and support orphans and vulnerable children from underprivileged backgrounds. A significant portion of our revenues go back to the community. We also run a non-profit called KCOOP Organization which was established and officially registered in 2022. Our organization operates here in Kibera slums and in rural parts of Kenya. The programs of KCOOP Organization include;
1. After school Program
2. Education Program
3. Combating Child Hunger
4. Empowerment Through Arts and Sports
5. Community Outreach
All our regular updates are available on our website (www.kcoop.org) and social media pages.

We are now seeking for like minded individuals, organizations or enterprises for partnership to enable us help more needy kids.
