The amount of private and public investment in Egypt’s tourism sector is indicative of the sector’s ongoing recovery, Daniella Cohen writes for The Media Line. Cohen points to projects such as the USD 3.3 bn Disneyland-style theme park being planned in Marsa Matrouh and efforts to revamp the area around the Giza pyramids to as examples of the length Egypt is willing to go to “revive one of its most important industries” and return to pre-2011 levels. She also says that Egypt’s involvement in massive regional projects such as Saudi’s Neom is expected to help drive visitor numbers.
