The best time to visit Egypt is from October to May

Egypt is one of the most vibrant and varied destinations in Africa with attractions varying from the gorgeous beaches of the Red Sea, to the pyramids, to the bustling cities of Luxor and Cairo. Alternatively, book an unforgettable Nile cruise and watch the wonders of Egypt float by.

Egypt has a timeless appeal that has been drawing travellers for millennia. With countless ancient attractions from the pyramids of Giza to the remarkable temples at Luxor, Egypt’s fascinating cultural treasures astound even the most experienced traveller. A highlight is to experience the journey down the river of the pharaohs, the Nile.

Watch ... the dramatic desert landscape and the glories of ancient civilisations pass by from the luxury of a shaded deck on your floating hotel. While Egypt is most famous for its ancient monuments, it also offers luxurious beach resorts. Sharm El Sheikh, on the Red Sea, has great beaches and excellent scuba diving. It is one of the best and most accessible dive destinations. Egypt’s fascinating past, wealth of attractions and friendly people ensure an unforgettable holiday experience
