FILE - Tourism in red sea - Egyptimg title="Cairo_at_night_." However, over the last year, there has been a very solid recovery in tourism with some hotels at near 100% occupancy for the first time since 2010.The question to ask is, can Egypt do more to boost tourism and gain both an increase in tourist numbers and in terms of spending from each tourist? Cairo and the Red Sea hotels have to up their game as other centers invest more heavily in upgrading their hotels and facilities and improve their staff training. If Egypt does this, then the average cost per night for tourists can also increase and attract new tourists.London as a tourist center is the second most-visited city globally after Hong Kong, receiving over 17 million tourists annually, while the whole of the UK receives over 33 million tourists a year. The increase in tourism is not only beneficial for the inflows of foreign currency but also for employment.
