Meditation tourism is a form of vacation travel and leisure activity to calm one's mind and body both mentally and spiritually. Tourists now possess a significantly elevated level of openness to new experience and Egypt can be one of the world's medi‌tation tourism spots if its travel agencies started to put it on their tourism regular programs . EGYPT has many locations that can be spiritual and are suitable for practicing meditation. This new form of tourism is becoming an important business philosophy of many hotels and resorts around the world. This study aims to highlight the significance of meditation tourism , identify the role of travel agencies in organizing meditative programs from meditative tourists perspective, identify meditative travelers level of satisfaction and their future intention of meditative tours. This study uses a quantitative methodology and an offline /online survey to gather data from 237 participants who practice meditation.
