After a string of attacks, Egypt's tourist numbers dropped drastically and for good reason. nobody wants to go on vacation to a place where they don't feel safe for them and their families. a by-product of this is that all the sites that used to be packed with tourists
were now completely empty and you can feel like you have the entire pyramids to yourself
Since the country is reliant on tourism as a source of US dollars, the government has implemented new security measures. this heightened safety coupled with the lack of tourists makes the destination even more attractive for anyone looking to fully experience ancient Egypt!
