The Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS) has proposed new park entry fees for citizens, residents, and foreign tourists in an effort to raise revenue for conservation, marking the first adjustment in 18 years.
The draft Wildlife Conservation and Management (Access and Conservation) (Fees) Regulations, 2025, outline the revised charges for entry into national parks, reserves, sanctuaries, and marine parks across the country.
The proposed fees will vary between high season (July to March) and low season (April to June), with different rates for citizens, residents, and non-residents.
The adjustments will apply to popular destinations such as Nairobi National Park, Amboseli, Tsavo East, Tsavo West, Mount Kenya National Park, and marine parks including Malindi and Kisite Mpunguti.
