In Kenya orphanage tourism is regarded as community based tourism which incorporates eco- tourism, cultural and charity tourism. Some regard it as pro-poor tourism. Kenya has its share of many orphans some of which have come street children and some live within orphanages which have been run down due to lack of financial capability to feed the lesser African child. In Kenya Worldmate Travel & Tour Co. Ltd take its clients to the slums in urban and rural areas which include urban centre slums and communities living within the slums in Nairobi, Kisumu and Mombasa. In the rural set up Worldmate Travel & Tour Co. Ltd takes its clients to western Kenya mostly which include Lake Victoria region, Nyanza and western provinces.

Western Kenya covers the part around Lake Victoria in Kenya. Various orphans live within the communities in western Kenya and very view live within the orphanages. The orphanages are located within Kisumu area, Asembo bay and Rarieda constituency, Siaya district which includes Alego/ Usonga constituencies. In these areas orphans live within the community with the older parents have many of which have died out of HIV- AIDS and some from various sicknesses. In Siaya district we visit the various orphanages which include the one run by the famous grandmother – Sarah Hussein Obama in Nyangoma Kogelo who happens to be the grandmother of the famous USA presidential candidate Senator Barrack Obama.
