The first cruise ship for 2020 docks at the Port of Mombasa this week, where the government has invested in a modern state-of-the-art terminal.
MS Marco Polo, owned by the Global Maritime Group under charter to UK-based Cruise and Maritime Voyages, brings in 500 passengers (both tourists and crew), Kenya Tourism Board confirmed yesterday.
