In November, Egypt has emerged as the top international destination for Russian tourists, surpassing popular rivals Turkey and Thailand, according to Russian state news agency RIA Novosti.

Egypt's reputation as a premier autumn destination for Russians is further solidified by the variety of itineraries available, combining leisure and exploration.
