The roadshows come at a difficult time for Kenya with several countries, including Australia, urging travellers to "reconsider your need to travel" to Nairobi and Mombasa and to stay away from the border regions with Somalia, South Sudan and Ethiopia.
Kenya’s government says it has put in place "specific and robust measures" to ensure that tourists visiting Kenya are safe and secure "at all times". ‘¨
