A Little More About Egypt

Visitors can enjoy a year-round dry and sunny climate and a whole host of cultural and sightseeing opportunities, which can be combined with shopping in one of the many bazaars in bustling Cairo or relaxing on the beautiful beaches of the Red Sea coast.

The luxury resort of Sharm El Sheikh enjoys glorious sandy beaches, turquoise waters and serves as an ideal base from which to explore the Sinai desert by camel, horse or jeep.

Surrounded by the Red Sea, the Sinai Peninsula offers one of the best places in the world to dive and snorkel amongst corals and exotic waters teeming with aquatic life
