Very cool walking tour through Nairobi's central area. The guides were amazing and shared their story with us, which was impressive. I saw a different part of Nairobi, which I would have never been able to see without these guys! I always felt safe as they know the city and the people extremely well. Besides of what I saw, I also really enjoyed the local food we tasted :)! Finally, everything was very well organised and clearly communicated. Love it! Asante sana!This tour is unique, and one that I’m happy I took. Seeing Nairobi’s street life thru the lens of the young men who lived and survived it, was truly amazing.
