    Ochi is an amazing guide and a wonderfully warm and welcoming guy to be with. As a native of Kibera, he knows everything and everyone and he shows his place with insight, authenticity and respect. It makes the tour an incredibly enriching experience that I cannot recommend enough!

    Kibera is a bustling and amazing hub in central Nairobi with so many innovative business and community activities and markets. But you do need a local guide to see the best of them, get inside the buildings to see how people live and work, be introduced to the residents and skilled crafts, and especially to find where the clean and well maintained toilets are!. Well done Ochi aka Francis for this entertaining tour which I can thoroughly recommend.

    We had a great time walking around in Kibera slums with Ochi, who seems to know everybody there. Very nice chap, he is! He picked us up from the shopping mall and we walked with him into the slum area. People there were very friendly, and we were even invited to come inside a few houses; ... amazing to see how people there live... makes you see your own life in a different perspective... Ochi told us a bit about the history of the slum, and showed us around the different sections of Kibera. We had an interesting traditional lunch, and very tasty.! An awesome experience, highly recommended!
