Why more Kenyans are holidaying at home during the Covid pandemic | ITV News

ITV News published this video item, entitled “Why more Kenyans are holidaying at home during the Covid pandemic | ITV News” – below is their description.

The wonders of Kenya’s wildlife in its great national parks are, in normal times, out of the reach of most of the country’s own population.

Game reserves are the preserve of wealthy safari-loving tourists from overseas.

But with Covid restrictions in place on international travel, those prices have fallen, making safaris more accessible to the Kenyans living with a national park on their doorstep.
