A Survey of Egypt for Publications

Download this press release as an Adobe PDF document.

Tour Egypt, well known for our expertise on Egyptian tourism, will be conducting a comprehensive survey of Egypt, and we will be providing our travel logs and photos to interested publications at no cost.

Cairo, Egypt – August 25, 2006 – Tour Egypt (touregypt.net), one of the worlds leading authorities on travel to Egypt, will be conducting a comprehensive survey of Egypt over a several month period, beginning September 21st, 2006.

We will be updating our files on almost all Egyptian, archaeology sites as well as documenting cities, countryside and other physical locations. I will also be documenting the culture and people of Egypt.

However, updating the physical features and monuments of Egypt is only one reason for our visit. We will also be documenting the culture, but perhaps more importantly, we will also be assessing the safety of Western, and in particular, American tourists and travelers to Egypt. We actually are well informed of tourist safety in the main touristic areas of Egypt, as our staff in Cairo, Alexandria, Luxor and elsewhere keep us informed on a daily basis. However, we will also be traveling to more remote locations, some frequented by a few tourists, while others see virtually no foreign presence.

In doing so, we wish to gauge the attitude of Egyptians towards foreign visitors including, specifically, Americans. Actually, attitudes towards western tourists have traditionally been very good in Egypt. This is certainly due, to some extent, by the fact that many Egyptians earn their livings either directly or indirectly through tourism. At the same time, I have observed many times in the past a true affinity towards western visitors, and even Americans specifically. Therefore, while examining current attitudes, we also hope to explore the historical ramifications. How have the attitudes of Egyptian people changed over the last few years? What has affected any such change, and what are the results of these changes?

We would like to invite you on this journey. While in Egypt, I will be providing reports of my visit, together with analysis and some selected high-resolution imagery. The reports and imagery will be free to bona-fide media outlets. I will begin this survey on September 21st, 2006. This time I will spend three weeks in Egypt, to be followed up by a second visit several months from now for the remainder of the survey into Upper (southern Egypt) and the Western Desert. I expect to file reports once each day, or every other day, depending on the availability of communication facilities. The press has closely examined many radical Muslim states, but radical Islam is, or at least has been, a very small minority of the Muslim populous. Lets take a look at a relatively modern and moderate Muslim state.

Newspapers and other media are invited to contact us. Those wishing to do so may publish these reports and images after review, at no cost, and no obligation.
