MV World Odyssey Cruise Ship Arrives In Mombasa Carrying 800 Tourists (Photos)
Kenya's tourism industry got a major boost after receiving her maiden cruise ship vessel MV World Odyssey at the port of Mombasa on Sunday after almost 4 years.
The MV World Odyssey has 800 tourists docked at 350 million shillings cruise ship terminal that was completed in 2019.
Since the onset of covid 19 in 2020, no cruise ship has made calls to the port of Mombasa. The timely arrival of vessels towards peak tourism season is expected to boost the economy of the region and regain the glory of the coastal city as a hub for tourism.
Tourism Cs Penina Malonza, KPA management led by acting MD Ambassador John Mwangemi, and the Kenyan tourism board management were on site to receive the guests.
Being the first post covid vessel, the country is well equipped with facilities to welcome visitors inside the country. There are security installations hence the tourists will be safe.
