For a very long time, people on this forum have peddled the lie that Tanzania earns more from tourism than Kenya. What's been happening is guys fished figures they didn't understand from the internet and paraded them around. They compared Tanzania's contribution to GDP figures with Kenya's government revenue from tourism figures and concluded Tanzania was ahead. Far from the truth - here are the actual figures.
Direct Contribution to GDP:-
KENYA - $2.5B
TANZANIA - $2.1B
Total Contribution to GDP
KENYA - $6.7B
TANZANIA - $5.9B

As you can see, Kenya leads in both size and growth of the tourism industry. I guess the discussion is over on this.
