Egypt is an extremely diverse holiday destination, and there's a holiday in Egypt for travellers of every taste, interest and budget.
If you like exploring the sights and gaining an insight into local culture, then the resorts of the Nile Valley are for you - where you can enjoy a short break in the bustling atmosphere of Cairo, or relax by the majestic Nile in Luxor or Aswan.
If you're after a relaxing beach holiday, the Red Sea is ideal, with near-perfect weather, sandy beaches, warm, crystal-clear waters and excellent hotels. We offer nine Egyptian Red Sea resorts, from the ever-popular Sharm el Sheikh to romantic Taba Heights. Each resort is different in terms of facilities, atmosphere, activities and convenience of location, and as the UK's leading independent Red Sea specialists, we can help you choose the best resort to suit your holiday.
For a beach holiday that combines sun and sand with a taste of authentic modern Egyptian culture, try Alexandria. Located on the shores of the Mediterranean, Egypt's ancient capital is home to several ancient sights and has a very laid-back atmosphere.
If holidays on water are your thing, combine sightseeing with cruising dramatic landscapes on the Nile or Lake Nasser. Cruise holidays in Egypt are truly unique, taking in many of the country's most iconic sights on a week's itinerary.
And if you like your holidays action-packed, Egypt offers a plethora of activities on water and on land. Explore the Red Sea's amazing reef formations and colourful marine life on a diving holiday - you can undertake a certified dive course, or simply do a trial dive; and for more experienced divers few places in the world offer so many and varied dive sites.
There's also snorkelling, windsurfing, kitesurfing, sailing and much more. If you don't want to get your feet wet, try quad biking, camel trekking or one of the other many adventures available - or tee off on golf courses enjoying some of the most panoramic views in the world.
We sell package holidays to Egypt, multi centres, flexible Tailor-Madeitineraries and more. Package holidays to the Red Sea, Nile Cruises, diving and golf can all be booked online.
