Egypt's tour operators hoping visitors will soon return

LEADIN:
Political unrest and violence in Egypt since the Arab Spring dealt a massive blow to tour operators and travel companies, who've offered cheaper deals to bolster visitor numbers.
Tourists in the high value luxury market tend to be more cautious, but as the industry recovers, Egyptian businesses are going all out to lure them back.
STORYLINE:
Tourism is one of Egypt's largest foreign currency earners.
These ancient stones have, like magnets, drawn visitors from around the world.
Decades ago all the whole industry here would have been aimed at the wealthy.
This trade in luxury combined with the exotic has suffered a serious setback in the last four years, but the World Travel and Tourism Council (WTTC) claims to be bullish about Egypt's prospects.
It says the total contribution of travel and tourism to Egypt's gross domestic product in 2013 was over twelve per cent.
According to the WTTC earnings from tourism are set to rise by almost five per cent in the next ten years.
The head of the Federal Chamber of Tourism, Elhamy El Zayat says official calculations show that by the end of this year tourism will amount to $6 billion (US).
That's half the $12.5 billion dollars (US) earned in 2010.
High end tourism represents 3.5 percent of the number of tourists and 7.5 percent of the income.
There are businesses offering personalised tours of Cairo, or the ruins of the Karnak Temple at Luxor which is steeped in ancient artefacts.
Egitalloyd is one of few travel agencies specialised in luxury tourism in Egypt.
Mamdouh El Sebai is the C.E.O and has been working in this sector of the economy for the past thirty years.
According to El Sebai exclusive tourists demand a much more tailored experience than others, but they are small in numbers.
He says: They do not represent a big portion of the number of tourists because most luxury tourists come for cultural tourism and not leisure tourism. So the numbers are less, I would say maximum 10 per cent.
Referring to his own business El Sebai says: It's almost four years, and I've had ten customers. That's two and a half per year.
In Zamalek, an island on the Nile in Cairo, the Marriott Hotel is considered as one of the most luxurious in the city.
It was originally a palace built by a king, for a queen.
Egyptian ruler Khedive Ismail built the Al Gezirah palace in 1869 to host Empress Eugenie, wife of Napoleon the third, who was guest of honour for the inauguration of the Suez Canal.
The palace was seized almost a decade later because of outstanding debts which had not been settled.
It was renovated and turned into a hotel.
In 1919 it was bought by a wealthy Syrian family, but in the 1960s it was nationalised by Egypt's President Gamal Abdel Nasser and renamed the Omar Khayyam Hotel.
It's been a Marriot since the 1970s when an additional two towers were built with 1,250 guest rooms.
General manager Rick Zeola admits the drop in tourism was harmful to the industry, but he says: We were kind of the best of the worse for the last four years. We were the most fortunate in really unfortunate circumstances.
Zeola is convinced these grand rooms will soon be filled with tourists.
He says: In the last three or four months business has really improved. In contrast to the last four years we're doing really well.
Various restaurants inside the hotels offer a selection of dishes from worldwide cuisines.
A chef in the kitchen prepares a fresh salad for the Italian restaurant and a mixed seafood platter for the prestigious Saraya Gallery.
According to Zeola Egypt is particularly well suited to meet the expectations of more exclusive clients.
The hotel has two royal suites and a spacious presidential suite.

EGYPTIAN ANCIENT ???????? PYRAMID & Hieroglyphics DISCOVERED! 3,700 Years Old; Take A LOOK

CAIRO -- A top antiquities official says an Egyptian excavation team has discovered the remains of a new pyramid that dates back to the 13th Dynasty, some 3,700 years ago.

The head of the Ancient Egyptian Antiquities Sector, Mahmoud Afifi, said in a statement Monday that the remains were located north of King Sneferu’s bent pyramid in the Dahshur royal necropolis south of Cairo.

Due to the bent slope of its sides, the pyramid is believed to have been ancient Egypt’s first attempt to build a smooth-sided pyramid. The necropolis was the burial site for courtiers and high-ranking officials.

An image provided by Egypt’s Ministry of Antiquities on April 4, 2017, shows the remains of a pyramid discovered south of Cairo, in the Dahshur royal necropolis. The pyramid is said to date to the 13th Dynasty, about 3,700 years ago.

Adel Okasha, the head of Dahshur necropolis, said that the remains belong to the inner structure of the pyramid, including a corridor. Other remains included blocks showing the interior design of the pyramid.

CairoLiveTV presents: Time Standing Still?

Time standing still?

Just off Ataba Square
there is a living monument to the glory days when downtown Cairo was a little like Paris.
Just one hundred years ago this neighborhood was filled
with lots of chic shopping options like Cicurel and Chemla, which were both nearby.
But the Sednaoui emporium on Post Office Street was the grandest of them all:
inspired by the Galleries Lafayette in Paris, Sednaoui was the in place to be.
These days the crowds have moved on, to City Stars and the other mega malls
where history is somehow repeating itself.
At Sidnaoui, though, time seems to be standing still:
It's a living monument to faded glory,
and a symbol of the city's inability to steer its past towards a better future.
