Scenic expects demand for Egypt to grow “even more” this year after agent sales accounted for more than half of the programme’s bookings in 2017.

The line said trade bookings to the destination – which was introduced in Scenic’s first full brochure for Egypt & Jordan in September – had so far amounted to 60% of the programme’s sales.


Scenic’s cruise and tour itineraries will depart in April and include an 11-day Treasures of Egypt trip from Cairo, featuring the pyramids of Giza, Luxor and a four-day Nile cruise.


Angela Sloan, head of UK sales, said: “We have had many agents interested and excited to promote these brand new itineraries,” adding: “With a new brochure… we would expect even more interest in Egypt in 2018”.
