New Visa-free travel policy in Kenya to encourage tourism
With the rise in outbound travel in Kenya, the government has included a large number of countries on its visa-free travel list, ensuring a hassle-free experience.
Recent studies anticipate a significant surge in travel in 2024. The previous year, Kenya had a 23% rise in international travel.
The GlobalData report for Kenya in 2023 determined that one of the top destinations for travellers was South Africa, among other neighbouring countries. This could lead to a significant boost in South African tourism with this visa-free policy initiated in Kenya.
