The Tourism Industry in Kenya
Kenya has been considered an attractive tourist destination for decades. Before the pandemic, over 2 million people visited Kenya annually, and tourism is a top foreign exchange earner alongside horticulture, tea and remittances.
Tourist arrivals and revenue have recovered significantly and further recovery is expected. The government has recognised domestic tourism as an essential contributor to the growth of the sector, underpinned by the rising middle class and diversification of products that suit locals to entice them to travel locally.
Key Issues
Kenya's safari and beach products have not been innovative to keep up with changing consumer needs and trends. Wildlife tourism is concentrated in seven parks which cater for 80% of total visitors.
Available bed capacity is not well distributed and mostly concentrated in Nairobi, the coast and the Rift Valley. Kenya is perceived to be a security risk, although the number of incidents has been reducing. Tourism is also affected by regional political instability.
Attracting Tourists
Kenya has formulated several policy papers and strategies to grow the sector, although implementation is challenging.
A new strategy launched in 2022 aims to reduce the country's dependence on safari and beach tourism and calls for the development of health and medical tourism, community-based tourism, underutilised parks initiatives, business and conference tourism, heritage tourism, a premium parks initiative and the development of coastal beach management and resort cities.
