End Egypt’s horse tourism

Using horses in Egypt’s tourism industry raises concerns about animal welfare and ethical treatment. Many horses endure long work hours in extreme heat, without adequate rest, food, or water. Furthermore, some are subjected to harsh training and live in poor conditions. Transitioning away from using horses in tourism and promoting alternative, more humane forms of transportation and entertainment is essential for ensuring the well-being of these animals. By advocating for responsible tourism practices and supporting initiatives prioritising animal welfare, we can work towards a more ethical and sustainable tourism industry in Egypt.
