The story of Encora Collection begins nearly five decades ago, rooted in a visionary approach to travel and hospitality. Established under the Wings Holding Company by Mr. Atef El Wassief in 1977, the Wings name quickly became synonymous with excellence and the pioneering spirit that would redefine Egypt's tourism landscape.
From its earliest days, Encora Collection was devoted to curating journeys that fused global service standards with the deeply authentic warmth of Egyptian hospitality. The company's journey began with its first product, Nile cruises, marking the foundation of its hospitality vision. Its next milestone arrived with the launch of its inaugural hotel in Hurghada, setting the stage for future growth and partnerships with renowned international hospitality brands. Encora Collection made history by introducing the very first five-star resort in the Red Sea region, demonstrating its commitment to raising expectations and creating transformative travel experiences.
