The CEO of the Egyptian Tourism Authority Amr al-Kady announced an increase in tourists coming from England, Holland, Saudi Arabia and China to the Egyptian market.
During an interview with Ahmed Moussa’s TV show “Ala Massoulity” (On My Responsibility), Kady added that there are also large numbers of tourists coming from Brazil, as Egypt enjoys great fame there.
Many of the tourists visiting Egypt come from Germany, followed by Russia, Saudi Arabia and England, he explained.
Tourism companies have various programs to educate tourists on various destinations in Egypt, as the tourist sometimes asks companies about the best places to visit.
Egypt’s share of Chinese tourists is only 300,000, he noted, adding that while Japanese tourists spend a lot they also demand a lot and their numbers have yet to increase after the coronavirus crisis.
Hurghada is the top tourist destination in Egypt throughout the year and not just in winter, he said, as it has the largest hotel capacity compared to other cities.
