Tourism in Kenya provides an income for the local economy, as tourists produce jobs for the locals. Therefore, unemployment rates are lower. In addition to this tourists get a greater understanding for the animals, plants and culture of Kenya. Areas such as Serengeti which is used for an African safari provide again, wider understanding of animals and animal migration.
Furthermore, infrastructure has been invested in meaning there are more roads, ports and airports so there is more tourism and more income. The income is then used to invest in better education and health care systems. However, the disadvantages of tourism in Kenya are; transport would damage the land, eroding grass destroying plants and animals habitats as well as trees and other vegetation being destroyed in order to build roads. Also, the idea of most profit from tourism would go to multi national companies in MEDC's as they would build hotels etc. In addition to that, the loss of traditions and culture meaning people way of life would be changed, and the methods of living has altered to suit the tourist industry.
