poverty,, They built very large concrete hotels
on the beaches, of Kenya South Africa and
other, countries. For a time the Charter
flights. Poured in from Germany and Italy.
The tourists hoped to, see lions but also
wanted to lie by the pool and to eat food
.From their own country and enjoy the other
comforts of home.The revenue from
tourism rose sharply but most, of it went. To
international tour operators.
That was then. Fortunately a new, kind of
travel is now in fashion.Today 's tourists are
leaving. The high-rise hotels and European
comforts. Instead they are looking for more
authentic experiences.
