The Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities co-hosts the French “Pioneers Forum” in several Egyptian tourist cities.

The Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities is keen to host the French “Pioneers Forum” (Forum des Pionniers), which was held this year in Cairo, Luxor, and Aswan, with the participation of approximately 130 leading tour operators, travel agents, and representatives of French tourism companies.

The forum is one of the most prominent annual professional events in the French tourism market. Organized under the auspices of Travel Insight, Travel Evasion, and the French school ESCAET, it brings together a select group of decision-makers, experts, and professionals in the French tourism and travel sector, contributing to strengthening international tourism partnerships and opening new horizons for cooperation between Egyptian tourist destinations and their French partners.

The participants visited the Giza Pyramids area, where the CEO of the Egyptian Tourism Authority emphasized the Authority's commitment to strengthening cooperation with major French companies operating in the tourism sector. This collaboration aims to increase tourist arrivals from the French market to Egypt, particularly given the market's prominent position as one of the most important European sources of tourism to Egyptian destinations.

The Authority also participated in a professional workshop held in Luxor. The Authority's delegation, which included Mr. Emad Fathy, Head of the Central Administration for Tourist Offices; Ms. Hayam Farouk, Director of the Western Europe Unit; and Ms. Marianne Helmy, Head of the French and Benelux Market, held several professional meetings with forum participants. The purpose of these meetings was to explore future cooperation opportunities and enhance trade relations with industry partners in the French market, thereby supporting the growth of tourist arrivals from this important market to Egypt.
