The Coast region's economy is anticipating a significant upswing as the Port of Mombasa welcomes two cruise ships, MV World Odyssey and MS Europe, carrying a total of 1,600 passengers.
The simultaneous arrival of these distinguished vessels marks a milestone, underscoring the port's growing appeal as a premier cruise destination.
This influx of tourists is expected to stimulate local sectors, including hospitality, transportation, and retail, through passenger spending on excursions, local goods, and other services.
The event not only underscores its commitment to enhancing tourism in Kenya but also highlights Mombasa's strategic position as a premier cruise destination in the region.
