More About Egypt
Egypt’s long and illustrious history captivates the modern world. Whatever your pre-conceived ideas are, nothing prepares you for the beauty and scale of the fantastic archaeological sites including the Temple of Luxor, the Pyramids of Giza, the Sphinx and The Valley of The Kings. Cairo is known as the City of a Thousand Minarets and is a bustling hub full of colourful souks and markets where you can buy local crafts, fabrics and food. In downtown Cairo, you can visit one of the world‘s most important collections of ancient artefacts housed in the Egyptian Museum. The Red Sea resorts are perfect for beach and watersport lovers. The white sandy beaches are a delight, snorkelling is magnificent and you also have access to some of the best dive sites in the world. Hurghada has a lovely marina, plenty of nightlife and an abundance of luxury beaches. Scuba diving is very popular here and you should be lucky enough to see colourful coral reefs, dolphins, turtles and the very recognisable clownfish. Luxury hotels are plentiful with gracious service the norm and accommodation mostly available on a half-board to all-inclusive basis. Approximately 10 miles from Hurghada lies El Gouna which is a popular resort for watersport enthusiasts who love the location for the windsurfing, kitesurfing, parasailing and waterskiing opportunities. An option you may not have considered in Egypt is a Nile Cruise. There are many luxury options on offer and it's a fantastic way to see this exciting country with the added benefit of escorted cruises having expert guidance from an Egyptologist. A cruise along the world's longest river lets you take in many of the iconic landmarks and you'll be able to visit ancient tombs and temples too.
