Egypt with its incredible history as one of the cradles of religion and civilization is certainly back on the list of incentive destinations for 2019. Chief Executive of Thomas Cook, Peter Fankhauser, told BBC Radio 4’s Today program that Egypt is among the world’s most wonderful countries, with great hotels, great beaches, nice people and really good value. “People want to go back,” Fankhauser added.
What could be better than dinner overlooking the Pyramids of Giza and a Nile River Cruise with golden sunsets, discovering the ancient city of Luxor and the Aswan Dam.
Excitement grows for the new Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM), which is now scheduled to officially open mid 2020. However private visits for incentive groups may be arranged at additional fees to include an orientation tour to some areas inside the Museum and some of King Tut’s collections. Set on the edge of the great Pyramids of Giza, the 5.2-million-square-foot structure will become the world’s largest museum devoted to a single civilization. Tens of thousands of artifacts dating back more than 3 500 years will be in the museum’s collection. The GEM will be a unique cultural icon that has no equivalent in the world in terms of design, area and the treasures it will display.
