| Why Egypt |
|
Renown for its history which stretches back over 6000 years,
Egypt is a land of mystery and legend. such a past has left
the country with an unequalled collection of ancient monuments and
relics. Whilst the Pyramids are, perhaps, the most famous of
Egypt's sights, Roman ruins, Byzantine churches and exquisitely
decorated mosques testify to the various cultures that have
influenced the country. |
|
Cairo, with the Nile at its heart, is an extraordinary
mixture of old and new, providing an endless variety of things to do
and see. There is an incredible selection of shopping
opportunities from the local crafts to designer wear; culture with
all manner of monuments and museums and food outlets from Arabic
coffee houses and pavement cafés to
floating restaurants on the Nile. |
|
Luxor, once the capital of ancient Egypt, lies on the banks
of the River Nile. On the east bank are the temples of Luxor
and Karnak, whilst on the west bank, in the Valley of the Kings and
Queens are the burial tombs of the Pharaohs and their wives. |
|
The Red Sea area of Egypt can be a great combination of
relaxing on beaches, diving, playing golf or visiting the local
sights. |
