Poverty Tourism

Who would want to go and visit SLUMS and SHANTY TOWNS for their holidays?

Well, acccording to recent reports, over 6 million of us do!!


BUT WHERE?


Darhavi , India (Setting for Slum Dog Millionaire)
























Nariobi, Kenya (people are paying £20 for a 'tour' of the slums- see link)













The streets of poverty are attracting the interest of tour operators - but critics say the residents are on parade like animals.
