Visit Egypt for Ancient and Modern

There are many different aspects to holidays in Egypt, from exploring the ancient culture to diving in the Red Sea. Modern hotel accommodation enables you to enjoy the best of Egypt in comfortable luxury.

The River Nile, The Pyramids, The Sphinx – thousands of years of history. Egypt conjures up a myriad of images and holidays to Egypt will enable you to visit these wonderful places for yourself.
The River Nile has been the lifeblood of Egypt throughout its entire history, the fertile banks of the great river enabling Egyptians through the ages to drink, eat and live in a country blessed with hot sunshine. Now you can enjoy the River Nile when you go on holiday in Egypt.

There is nothing more evocative of Egypt than the Pyramids. Built thousands of years ago, they still stand as a testament to the construction skills and dedication of the ancient Egyptians. The Great Pyramid covers just over nine acres, and only when you visit and stand at its foot can you understand the true scale and magnificence of these edifices. Holidays to Egypt bring you close to the Valley of the Kings, the Pharaohs and a culture that extends all the way from ancient to it impact on modern day tourism.

A similar marvellous iconic piece of architecture built by the Ancient Egyptians is the Great Sphinx of Giza. Half-human, half-lion, it is a symbol of the strength of the Ancient Necropolis of Giza and was built to pay homage to the strength of the King.

Holidays to Egypt means you can visit the east of Egypt where the Red Sea lies. If you’re a diver then you’ll be aware of the Red Sea. If you’re not, the Red Sea is a great place to start. There are many well-established diving centres all along the coast, and the instructors will be delighted to arrange courses and daily excursions to the wonderful undersea world of marine life and deserted shipwrecks.

Destinations such as Hurghada and Sharm El Sheikh are bringing Egypt bang up to date with brand new accommodation ready to make your holiday to Egypt an experience never to be forgotten.
