Get the most out of your Egypt Holiday

What more is there to be said about Egypt that a thousand scholars, philosophers and writers have not already said. From the spectacular sights of Cairo and Luxor down to the jewel coloured Red Sea, there is something for everyone. There are so many different combinations and types of holidays for you to enjoy in Egypt, from the seven night river cruises leaving Luxor and encompassing the Ancient Sites of the Pharaohs including, The Valley of the Kings and Queens, Island Of Philae, Aswan High Dam and of course the awe inspiring Abu Simbel, you are truly spoilt for choice in this land of the Ancients.


Luxor and Nile Cruises

Luxor with its glorious history spanning almost 7000 years, is still one of the ‘living Ancient Cities’ of the world. Despite Cairo’s claim to fame been the Pyramids of Giza and the Sphynx, in and around Luxor you will find most of the Pharaonic and ancient sites worth seeing including the Valley of the Kings and the Queens, Karnak Temple and the Island of Philae. The number and preservation of the monuments in the Luxor area are unparalleled anywhere else in the world, and what most people think of as Luxor is really three different areas, consisting of the City of Luxor on the East side of the Nile, the town of Karnak just north of Luxor and Thebes, which the ancient Egyptians called Waset, which is on the west side of the Nile across from Luxor. Apart from staying in a selection of either the small and friendly Hotels in and around the Luxor Cornice, you can also enjoy a seven day Nile Cruise, which is probably the best way to enjoy all the sites around the Nile from Luxor down to Abu Simbel via Aswan.

Sharm El Sheikh

The incredible development of what once was a sleepy and exclusive haunt for divers; Sharm El Sheikh has become the most popular Summer and Winter destination for holidaymakers around the world. The 23 kilometre coast line of Sharm El Sheikh is dotted with 4 and 5 star hotels and they are all concentrated in their own exclusive bays like Nabq Bay, Naama Bay, Sharks Bay and Ras Om El Sid hill. Naama Bay is the liveliest of all the bays in Sharm El Sheikh, with lots of restaurants and shops as well as the world famous Pasha nightclub. Sharm El Sheikh will suit anyone looking for a major tourist spot with lots to do.

Dahab & Nuweiba

Looking for a complete get away from it all holiday, then look no further than Dahab or Nuweiba surrounded by glorious golden sands and crystal turquoise waters, these two resorts are the epitome of a relaxing break from it all and the antithesis of Sharm El Sheik. Within close proximity to Jordan you can do some wonderful day excursions to the Rose Red City of Petra and St Katherine’s Monastery.

Taba & Taba Heights

The original of Egypt’s red sea resorts, little has changed in the last 25 years, with beautifully kept hotels never crowded beaches and glorious diving sites Taba is extremely popular with repeat guests and new guests alike. With no disco divas here or fast food outlets you are guaranteed a very special and low key holiday. There are also daily excursions to Petra and the red canyons and St Katherine’s Monastery which is the oldest known Christian place of worship, dating back to 1500.

Hurghada

Unlike Sharm El Sheikh which is a purpose built resort, Hurghada has always been a busy little town with gorgeous bays and beaches and with plenty of activities to keep you occupied throughout your stay, stretching from Soma Bay down to Makadi Bay and further Hurghada is a delightful alternative to the commercial appeal of Sharm El Sheikh and it is also easily twinned for our two centre Nile Cruise and Stay packages.

Marsa Alam

Marsa Alam is the newest addition to the Red Sea resorts, and frankly the best of all the locations as this is where the Red Sea and the Indian Ocean meet. A holiday in Marsa Alam in the Red Sea Riviera means 50 km of sandy beaches between Marsa Alam airport and the small village by the same name towards the south. It is a heaven for scuba diving with its virgin reef, but keep in mind that snorkelling can be tough due to the open sea, unless you choose a hotel located inside a bay. The area also offers a good spot for kite and windsurfers and some pleasant Bedouin camps.
