Kenya was recently voted the best tourist destination in the world at the 22nd annual World Travel Awards (WTA) 2015. This is an accolade that cannot be taken lightly in view of the events of the last two years that threatened to kill the tourism industry.
After agriculture, tourism is the second largest foreign exchange earner, with an impressively consistent trend over the years despite the security challenges that the country faced in the last two tears. We recall that the country was subjected to sporadic terrorist attacks in Nairobi, Mandera, Garissa and the Coastal strip between 2013 and 2014.
