For the very first time, the World’s Greatest Marathoner set foot in the Mara last month, accompanied by his family, to witness the ongoing Great Wildebeest Migration. This comes hot in the heels, of his signing as magical Kenya destination ambassador by Kenya Tourism Board (KTB).

The engagement, which commenced in July 2020, will see Eliud Kipchoge promote Kenya as a preferred tourism destination both locally, regionally and internationally through various campaigns. Speaking during his unveiling as Kenya’s new goodwill ambassador for tourism, President Uhuru Kenyatta in a live link intimated that the entire nation is betting on the Greatest of All Time who coined the phrase ‘no human is limited’ to offer an athletic shot in the arm of a limping industry.
