What's more, this East African nation is also a very affordable destination for Indian travellers. Kenya, although termed a "developing nation," has witnessed considerable economic growth over the past decade, with the government investing in tourism and infrastructure. This growth has led to increased competition among businesses in the tourism sector, driving prices down to attract more visitors. According to a report by a New Delhi-based media conglomerate, the influx of Indian tourists to Kenya increased by 14 per cent in 2023 compared to 2022. Visiting Kenya will give you a chance to take advantage of its many offerings without trying to save too much.
TOP ATTRACTIONS
At the heart of Kenya's allure lies its breathtaking wildlife, showcased in iconic national parks and reserves such as the Masai Mara National Reserve in southwestern Kenya along the Tanzanian border, Amboseli National Park in southern Kenya, and Tsavo National Park in the Taita-Taveta County. The snowy Mount Kenya, Africa's second-highest peak, offers great trekking opportunities amid stunning alpine scenery. You can also take a tea tour with lunch at the Kiambethu Farm in Limuru in Nairobi under INR 2,800 or enjoy the beautiful beaches in the coastal town of Watamu north of Mombasa.
