Tourism industry players have welcomed the lifting of travel advisories by the United Kingdom even as the country moves into the 2015 peak season.
The Kenya Tourism Federation (KTF) and the Kenya Tourism Board (KTB) have hailed the decision by the United Kingdom to revise travel advisories placed on the port city of Mombasa last year. “We are delighted with the Foreign and Commonwealth Office’s decision to lift their travel advice for Kenya’s coast from Watamu to Diani as announced Thursday,” said KTB Managing Director Muriithi Ndegwa.
