Basking in the heritage of thousands of years of ancient civilisation and history, Egypt is a mystical and timeless place ideal for those who enjoy culture and sun-worshipping. Probably the world’s oldest civilisation, visited by the Ancient Greeks and Romans, Egypt is also one of the original holiday destinations.

Today 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.

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. 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. If you want to see the sights why not enjoy an excursion to St.Catherine’s Monastery on Mount Sinai, hop on a plane to Cairo forthe day to see the awe-inspiring Pyramids of Giza, or fly to ancient Luxor to see the magnificent Valley of the Kings.
