The tour was very interesting. I found myself with some time to kill before my flight home so I decided to give it a try. Sure, these were sights I was familiar with, but hearing the stories from young folks shone a whole new light on them. The guide was very knowledgeable and a story that started as an anecdote soon evolved into a history lesson, both contemporary and historical. I loved it and will definitely do it again!

The tour was both enjoyable and informative, and the students did an amazing job guiding us through the city. They were extremely knowledgeable about Nairobi’s history, culture, and important landmarks, and they explained everything in a way that was engaging and easy to understand. What made the tour especially special was hearing perspectives directly from local students. Their passion for sharing their city really showed, and they were very welcoming and open to questions throughout the tour. It felt like a very authentic way to learn about Nairobi.
