The Egypt Tourism Authority has announced that 1,034,413 British holidaymakers visited Egypt in 2011. This makes the UK the second most popular tourist nationality to the home of the ancient Pharaohs, topped only by Russia with Germany coming third.
It has also been announced that the average UK holidaymaker spends 11.45 nights per annum in Egypt; which is well known for its warm and timeless hospitality and its great value for money. With an excellent climate throughout the seasons, year-round sunshine, two stunning coastlines and desert beauty, its broad cultural spectrum with relics of history that date back thousands of years never cease to attract travellers.
The statistic shows that Egypt continues to be an important and very popular tourist destination for British holidaymakers. The fact that tour operators have recently increased their capacity and Egyptair has expanded their flight offer emphasizes this and indicates that visitor numbers will continue to grow in 2012.
