Brazil is seen as a potential market by Kenya Tourist Board and would help the country grow its tourist numbers.
Most tourists will come from emerging markets like Brazil, India and China, says the UN World Tourism Organisation (UNWTO) and Kenya is looking at tapping into this business.
The country has been investing in new markets in the past few years with concentration being placed in markets like India, China, Russia, Gulf Cooperation Council, Australia and Eastern Europe.
However, activities in Brazil have been limited but are expected to increase in the next couple of years especially as the country hosts the World cup in 2014 and the Olympics in 2016.
