Contribution of travel and tourism to GDP in Kenya 2019-2021
In 2021, travel and tourism contributed 5.4 billion U.S. dollars to Kenya's Gross Domestic Product (GDP). The amount increased by nearly 35 percent compared to 2020, when the tourism industry struggled with the impact of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. Despite the recovery, the value added to the GDP remained below that registered previous to the health crisis.
