Cairo & Hurghada

One of the many things that attracts millions of visitors to Cairo every year is the chance to visit the Giza Pyramid Complex, where these truly stunning structures and the Great Sphinx can be found. Another destination high on your list will be the Egyptian Museum which is home to an unbelievable range of exhibits spanning over 5,000 years. Another important piece of the city’s history is the Cairo Citadel – a medieval fortress with views stretching out for miles around.

The Khan El Khalili Bazaar is somewhere else you’ll want to experience while you’re in Egypt’s capital. Clothes, spices and perfumes are just some of the many items you’ll find for sale here and the whole experience is a lively and immensely enjoyable one and a chance to speak to some of the locals when you’re bargaining on price. 

In Hurghada you can try a bit of dolphin spotting, visit giant sand sculptures, go to the aquarium and enjoy diving in the calming waters of the Red Sea. Similar to Sharm El Sheikh, this is a thriving coastal resort where the sun rarely stops shining.

Hurghada also has an old town area known as El Dahar where you can enjoy people watching with an aromatic local coffee or go shopping in the souks.
