NILE VALLEY

SEASIDE

DESERT AND OASIS

NILE VALLEY Discover the eternal Egypt of the Pharaohs and Great Pyramids, the last remaining wonders in the world, from the banks of the world’s second longest river, the Nile. The traces of this 5000 years civilization border the river valley for more than a thousand kilometers.

Alexandria and its legendary port shines as the “Pearl of the Eastern Mediterranean” with its oriental flair and deep historical, cultural and archaeological heritage, and along all the North Coast with its stunning beaches. Cairo embodies 150 generations of history, with the Great Pyramids rising on the Giza Plateau. The magnificent columned halls in the temple of Karnak in Luxor have been impressing visitors for millennia. In Aswan, a lasting impression is left by the enchanting river scenery of the First Cataract. The grand finale of a journey into the deep south of Egypt is the awesome Temple of Ramses II in Abu Simbel.

In front of such scenery, a Nile cruise becomes a journey of personal discovery, through a land which nourishes one’s imagination and touches the heart.

SEASIDE Blue sky all year round, a pleasant temperate climate, fine sandy beaches lining a sumptuous tropical sea, discover the fascinating seaside delights of Egypt. With coral reefs renowned by experienced divers as amongst the best in the world, Egypt’s Red Sea coast has treasures aplenty to draw you in. Back on land, the attractions are just as compelling: holiday resorts with quality, affordable accommodation and a fascinating bouquet of shopping, sport and leisure activities.  Egypt may well be the land of the sun, but its coasts also offer an exciting variety of water-related attractions, such as snorkeling, windsurfing, sailing and yachting to enjoy!
Hurghada offers ideal conditions for all kinds of water sports. You will be delighted by its beach scene and lively nightlife. El Gouna is the perfect destination for tranquil family vacations or long-term stay. If pure natural beauty is what you are looking for, look no further than the resort of Marsa Alam. Port Ghalib is a top class holiday resort positioning itself as a central hub for water sports. Amongst  other great spots, you will find Sharm El-Sheikh (at the southern point of Sinai), Dahab, Nuweiba and Taba, with its beautiful beaches and a variety of activities and choices in both water & land.

DESERT AND OASIS Far from the fertile banks of the Nile, Egypt consists of a large ocean of golden dunes and rocky plains.  El Fayoum, Kharga, Dakhla, Farafra, Bahariyya and Siwa: the oases of Western Egypt appear to be islands not only in the seemingly endless expanse of Saharan sand, but also in time.
In the White Desert, the winds of time have sculpted the limestone rock into bizarre shapes: mushrooms, cones, columns, and table mountains. At dusk and dawn, the white formations shine in luminous pastel colors.
See the sunrise from the back of a camel, or the spectacular views from on top of a sand dune into the majestic expanse of desert. Nature lovers will be amazed by the colorful multitudes of rare birds.
Slip under the shade of a palm tree at an idyllic oasis during the day or share some tea in a Bedouin camp at nightfall. Get some comfort for your body and soul in one the warm sulphur springs. You’ll feel as if you’ve unearthed all of the desert’s great secrets…
