Earlier today with Cabinet colleagues, participated in the Joint Committee of Cabinet meeting chaired by Deputy President H.E. Prof. Kithure Kindiki @KindikiKithure

This provided an opportunity to assess Kenya’s preparedness and driving strategies to harness and leverage Artificial Intelligence (AI). Tourism sector, heavily relies on AI ~ ranging from hyper-personalized visitor experiences and smart destination marketing to predictive data that enhances our wildlife conservation.

We are keen on aligning our policy and programmatic interventions to ensure AI serves our current and future national interests, unlocking new frontiers for growth, innovation, and sustainable tourism.

Consistency, persistence and resilience are all tied up at the groin for better results which was the exact mood in Stakeholders dinner organized by State Department of Tourism and KTB. It a great insight to strategic approach towards increasing number of visitors to Kenya

[Julius Kibet Bitok @JuliusKBitok]

Today, I had the pleasure of meeting with our Heads of Department to review our progress, assess ongoing programmes, and align on the priorities that will drive the growth and competitiveness of Kenya’s tourism sector.

It was an open and productive engagement that gave us the opportunity to reflect on what is working well, identify the areas that need improvement, and, most importantly, find practical solutions together. I am encouraged by the commitment and dedication of our team as we continue working towards a stronger, more vibrant tourism sector that delivers for all Kenyans.

Together, we will keep building a tourism industry that is innovative, competitive, and globally outstanding #MagicalKenya

Moving forward together ❤️

I have arrived at Lake Naivasha Resort for the Tour Operators Society of Kenya (TOSK) Annual General Meeting, 10th Anniversary and Gala Dinner.

This evening provides an important opportunity to celebrate a decade of TOSK’s remarkable contribution to Kenya’s tourism sector and to engage with key industry stakeholders as we chart the future of our tourism industry.

I look forward to joining tour operators, partners and stakeholders in reaffirming our shared commitment to growing Kenya’s tourism, strengthening partnerships, and positioning our country as a leading global destination.

[Simba Ray @Rayiecher]

Moving forward together. Thank you Bwana PS.

[State Department for Tourism Kenya @TourismKE_]

Principal Secretary for Tourism, Amb. Prof. Julius K. Bitok, graced the Tour Operators Society of Kenya (TOSK) Annual General Meeting, 10th Anniversary Celebrations, and Gala Dinner as the Chief Guest.

The event brought together Tour Operators and other key players in Kenya’s tourism ecosystem to reflect on a decade of TOSK’s contribution to excellence, industry collaboration, and sustainable tourism growth. The PS commended TOSK for its pivotal role in advancing tourism standards and fostering a vibrant, resilient sector that continues to contribute significantly to the country’s socio-economic development.

As Kenya strengthens its position as a premier global destination, partnerships between government, industry professionals, and stakeholders remain critical in driving innovation, competitiveness, and inclusive growth across the tourism value chain. @ToskKenya @magicalkenya @Min_TourismKE @rebecca_miano @JuliusKBitok

Today, I had the pleasure of hosting a strategic meeting with the leadership of the World Travel & Tourism Council (WTTC), including President & CEO Gloria Guevara and Executive Vice President Hon. @tunajibu who has previously served our nation with great distinction as Minister for Tourism.

A key highlight of our session was an eye-opening presentation shared by the WTTC, which mapped out Kenya’s commanding position within the African continent and underscored how we stack up against our toughest competitors worldwide.

To turn these insights into action, we are strengthening our ongoing partnership with the WTTC. By aligning our rich wildlife, cultural heritage, and MICE capacity with WTTC’s global private-sector network, we are opening doors for new investments, safeguarding our biodiversity, and firmly positioning our beautiful country as the ultimate choice for global travelers.

Magical Kenya remains a powerhouse destination, exceptionally positioned to be the world’s preferred global destination 🇰🇪!

We just need to convert this to revenue by incorporating @ToskKenya members in such endeavors. Keep it up Madam CS.

[CS Rebecca Miano, EGH @rebecca_miano]

This evening, i welcomed the Slovak Foreign Affairs Minister H.E. Juraj Blanar and his delegation on behalf of the Prime Cabinet Secretary H.E @MusaliaMudavadi.

We had an opportunity to discuss Kenya-Slovakia cooperation on different mutual issues . Beyond our strong roots in tech and health, we explored strategic pathways to elevate tourism exchanges, promote joint wildlife conservation strategies, and welcome more Slovak visitors to experience the beauty of @magicalkenya 🇰🇪🤝🇸🇰

To sustain this growth, we are prioritizing cutting-edge hospitality training partnerships to upscale our youth with global skills. Collaborative exchange programs and specialized training frameworks with Slovakia will significantly build capacity, ensuring our hospitality sector meets top international standards for a stronger economy.

Wishing you the victory Bobi..... Freedom is coming to our neighbor's house....

[BOBI WINE @HEBobiwine]

Ntungamo district seals our sixth week since we began our campaign trail. It’s been a journey of agony given what just happened yesterday at Bwizibwera. But we know that is the ultimate price we have to incur for us to achieve freedom.

Our message to the people of Ntungamo district has centered around unity. We will not at any point accept to be divided by the oppressor. Our strength will only be witnessed by our unity.

We need to guard our gem, remove the Gateway fees!

[TWIGA TRAILS SAFARI @TwigaTrails]

We are tour operators, not tax collectors. Stop forcing us to pass on these punitive fees to our clients.

The 8.5% fee is hostile to tourism.

Asubuhi ya baraka na shukrani kwa Mwenyezi Mungu, nilipoungana na wananchi wenzangu wa Chamwino kupiga kura.

Tuendelee kujitokeza, kama ambavyo mamilioni ya wananchi katika maeneo mbalimbali ya nchi yetu wamefanya, na kupiga kura kwa amani na utulivu.
