In 2026, our focus is on growing tourism in a way that is sustainable, inclusive, and meaningful. The ambition is to welcome more travellers while creating richer experiences through closer collaboration with trade partners. Kenya’s story is expanding to include culture, wellness, adventure, heritage, and community-led experiences. Digital platforms will support this journey by enabling personalised, data-informed engagement from inspiration to booking.
India remains a high-potential, long-term growth market for Kenya. Our ambition is to attract more Indian travellers and position Kenya as a high-value, emotionally resonant destination that inspires repeat visits.
Rohit Shorey
Founder & CEO, Kazin DMC
2026 is about strengthening our role as a specialist partner across Central Asia and the Caucasus. Our focus is on deeper destination mastery. We aim to expand selectively into new source markets, strengthen our MICE vertical, and continue investing in proprietary systems — particularly our in-house CRM — to empower both our teams and our agent partners with clarity, speed, and accurate destination intelligence.
Innovation for us is simplifying processes, improving decision-making, and enhancing on-ground delivery. Equally important is trust with agents, suppliers, and travellers, which remains the foundation of long-term success.
