A new online platform dedicated to yacht tourism in Egypt will be launched soon, along with a number of incentives and promotional strategies. Minister of Transport Kamel Al-Wazir outlined initiatives to improve international yachts’ access to Egyptian marinas, working with the Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities. This is reported by
