Fewer and fewer western travelers are choosing to vacation in Egypt. Since the Arab Spring of 2011 and a wave of tragic air crashes, uncertainty about the stability of the region has caused tourism in Egypt to plunge into deep decline. However, according to Ahmed Nashaat, now is the time to make travel plans to the ancient country.
“Luxury resorts, beaches, restaurants, cultural attractions – they’re all nearly empty,” says Ahmed Nashaat. “The decline in visitors has caused a wave of aggressive boosterism across the tourism industry. The tourism ministry is encouraging numerous A-list American celebrities to visit, and travelers can get fantastic rates for some of the most popular attractions.”
Egypt offers travelers a vacation experience that cannot be replicated anywhere else in the world. Not only can visitors enjoy year-round warm weather, there is a broad spectrum of activities that will appeal to a wide variety of tourists. With scuba diving and hiking the Sinai Trail for nature enthusiasts, an abundance of cultural and historic events and sites, and exciting nightlife, there are fantastic things for everyone to see and enjoy.
Sharm El Sheikh is an especially beautiful region, featuring a wealth of attractions. Travelers can explore Ras Mohammed National Park, a protected national site where visitors can see stunning ancient coral reefs and swim with a diverse ecosystem of marine life. The nightlife is also thrilling – some of the most innovative and renowned international DJs routinely play at the hottest nightspots throughout Naama Bay. Sharm El Maya has fabulous marketplaces and bazaars, where visitors can sample some of the local delicacies and enjoy the rich culture.
“There is no better time to come to Egypt, and particularly Sharm El Sheikh,” continues Ahmed Nashaat. “It’s a fantastic and welcoming place, and I encourage anyone who is looking to have the vacation of a lifetime to visit.”
Ahmed Nashaat is a Cairo-based entrepreneur and philanthropist.
