Egypt Packages - Affordable Fun In The Sun

By Sophie B Hall

Egypt is based in Eastern North Africa at the Nile River at the lower parts. To discover Egypt packages is to begin to trace roots through an exploration of ancient civilization. The cultural and political standpoint of the Middle East comes from Egypt. An Egypt package has to contain pyramids, temples, monuments, deserts and an ancient Egypt journey that Egypt is most recognized with, the legendary pharaohs. Egypt really is an amazing country to visit and you'll need a long holiday to fully explore all of its ancient treasures.

Egypt has an incredible amount of diversity packed into one country. If you are into archeology you would probably want to spend the rest of your life there. If you like lazy river cruises you can find a variety of them. If you just want to relax on a sunny beach while Europe is under a blanket of snow, once again Egypt can offer that.

Luxor is the king of archeology. The temples, tombs and palaces in this area have fascinated archeologists for a very long time. Even if you know nothing about archeology, you will still stand in awe at the beauty of the temples of Luxor and Karnak. The quality of hotels and restaurants are of a high standard, so you won't have to give up your little luxuries while enjoying all this.

Cairo is a city of such intoxicating variety that it's hard to tear yourself away from the city once you have experienced it. There are pyramids, and camel trips into the desert. There is the smell of spices mixed with the smell of perfume. There are markets, there are museums with real mummies, and crumbling old alleys where you will feel as if you have walked straight into the Middle Ages.

Do not let making the mistake of eating the wrong something, ruin your vacation. Be cautious. Talk to people and get the names of restaurants that are considered or known to be safe. Remember to only eat "hot" foods. Even though the salad bars look scrumptious, just say no.

An old favorite is Hurghada. During the winter months of the northern hemisphere Hurghada offers sunshine every day, and the opportunity to swim or dive or relax on the beach with never a drop of rain in sight. For divers Marsa Alam is a paradise. The coral reefs and other marine life is still totally unspoilt. Taba, close to the Israeli border, is a developing resort with good facilities.
