Ecotourism in Kenya: Protecting Africa’s Resources
KenyaMany areas of the world are now participating in ecotourism. Kenya has many eco-friendly resources that don’t require you to sacrifice an enjoyable vacation.
Kenya is home to many of Africa’s endangered species, and the link between environment and tourism has a great impact on the welfare of Kenya’s wildlife. That’s why Kenya participates in ecotourism – a strategy that allows the balance of nature and the needs of tourists to coincide without damaging the environment.
