Affordable
The airfare to Kenya from any part of the world is reasonably cheap due to its being centrally located globally. Hotel accommodation, food and drinks are also reasonably cheap compared to other parts of the world. For example, a half litre of the tasty Kenyan Tusker lager beer costs an equivalent of two US dollars in a five star beach resort and one US dollar in other hotels.
