Laikipia boasts a vast range of wildlife, captivating landscapes and vibrant cultural heritage which are key attractions for tourists. This has led to significant development of hospitality and tourism establishments. Laikipia Tourism Association (LTA) is an alliance that links all the tourism providers to foster growth of Laikipia as tourist destination by advocating for all elements of sustainable tourism.
On 31st May LTA was privileged to participate in this year’s Mt. Kenya Region Hotel Suppliers Expo organized by Insight Hospitality East Africa. This was an engaging forum that brought exhibitors together to showcase their products to stakeholders in the tourism and hospitality sector. Various exhibitors such as Hot point suppliers, Ketepa Limited and Super Foam had an array of products most of which were subsidized for the visitors.
The LTA desk acted as a platform to market our work and forge more partnership to those who had attended. Our team gracefully guided enthusiastic visitors who were keen to get insights on benefits of becoming members of LTA.
The event was free of charge and provided a platform where different stakeholders shared their experiences allowing visitors to connect, learn and grow, underscoring the need for sustainable tourism across Laikipia landscape.
The platform allowed LTA to link up with its members and welcomed those who developed an intent of becoming members. Those who attended called for such more events to promote and improve Laikipia’s tourism which allowed them to keep up with the current trends that impact tourism positively.
Additionally, the expo was a major step for LTA towards amplifying our voice and revamping our strategies to reach out more members through such platforms. LTA is committed towards linking our members with such events and the recognizes the empowerment of tour providers in order to offer exceptional services across Laikipia.
