Step beyond the surface of Kenya’s capital and see Nairobi through the eyes of those who know its streets best. This intimate, three-hour guided walk is led by young Kenyans who once called the city’s pavements home — remarkable individuals who have transformed hardship into hope.
Your journey begins in the heart of downtown Nairobi, where every corner tells a story of resilience and renewal. As you wander through bustling markets and vibrant streets, your guide will share candid insights into life growing up in Mathare — one of Nairobi’s oldest informal settlements — and the strength it took to rise above its challenges.
Pause to browse colourful stalls, try your hand at bargaining for locally made crafts, and enjoy a hearty Kenyan meal in a traditional kibanda eatery, surrounded by the warmth of everyday city life.
More than a tour, this is a story of second chances and human connection. Operated by a visionary social enterprise, each experience directly supports the education, training, and employment of former street children — helping to shape a brighter future for the next generation.
