An ancient land of antiquities, pyramids, temples, oases and Holy Land, Egypt is much more than this stereotypical image painted since times immemorial. How do exciting desert treks, scuba diving, lazing on the Red Sea or Sinai coasts, cruising down the Nile, birding expeditions, fishing, golf or dancing the night away sound?
Present-day Egypt is a land bustling with life, sound, visual beauty and excitement. Apart from exploring the cities and the customary sightseeing, take a trip to the offbeat Sidi Abdel Rahman, a lovely waterfront town on the Mediterranean coast for secluded lovely white-sand beaches. Popular are the Camel and jeep safaris in the Western Desert with its fantastic sand landscapes or in the rugged, rocky environs of Sinai.
