Key Kenya Selling Points

The world is becoming smaller and smaller, with new destinations opening up and with better flight connections than ever before. Even though a holiday can be booked in a few clicks, the vast majority of sales to Kenya continue to be done through travel agents and tour operators.

The vastness of the country can be daunting for a first-time visitor and with such a wealth of things to do, clients welcome the expertise of an agent. Because clients are not confident in booking Kenya themselves, there is often a higher margin to be made on these bookings compared to other countries.

Below is a list of just a few of the key selling points for Kenya - this is a great list to have to hand if you're speaking to a client, particularly a first-time visitor!

Kenya is the Birthplace of Safari

Home to the 'Big 5', the abundance of wildlife is comparable to nowhere else on earth. It’s not just the larger animals to watch out for as Kenya is home to 11% of the world’s birdlife with over 1,100 species spotted here.

The Variety is Endless

There is something for everyone from safari, adventure sports, relaxing beach breaks, cultural excursions, colorful history, and outstanding service.

Kenya is a Year-Round Destination

Kenya is an easy sell when it comes to the weather; it can be sold all year! Yes, there are two rainy seasons but showers are often short-lived and make for dramatic game drives.

There are Daily Flights

There are daily direct departures to Nairobi from almost all major global hubs. When in destination, there are daily shuttle services on light domestic aircraft, making even more remote areas closer than you think.

It is English-Speaking, Friendly, and Welcoming

As Kenya was a former British colony, most people, if not all, speak fluent English so you will find no language barriers here.
