Chairman of the Tourism Promotion Authority Hisham el Demeiry met on Wednesday with a number of Czech tour operators on the sidelines of his current visit to the Czech Republic.

The visit comes as part of efforts exerted by the Tourism Promotion Authority to promote Egypt's tourism.

Demeiry said his meeting with the Czech tour operators has tackled measures taken by the Egyptian government to lure Czech tourists to visit Egypt.

The number of Czech tourists increased by 150 percent from January to August 2017, he said.
