For a family holiday in Egypt try and experience at least two of following major attractions in this fabulous country
- Cairo, Egypt’s capital and home to one of the world’s most famous museums. The kids will be amazed to actually see the solid gold and jeweled masks of King Tutankhamen’. They will also enjoy Cairo’s huge bazaar and it’s a great base in which to take:
- A trip to the Pyramids and Sphinx at Gaza. You can hire a camel to take you the last bit across the desert. The kids will love this bit.
- If you like roughing it then you can experience a real desert safari and camp out to see the incredible starry skies at night, which have to be seen to be believed. It is also great to stay in a hotel at the end in a genuine oasis.
- The Nile snakes through the whole length of Egypt and you must at least catch a glimpse of it. Of course a popular holiday option is to take a luxury cruise and take in a few temples on route.
- The temples of Luxor are a real must if you want to give the children a feel for the history of this great civilisation. There are some great family holiday offers in this very popular ancient town where you can have that ideal holiday mix of a bit of culture with a lot of fun and relaxing by the pool the rest of the time.
- Most of Egypt’s coast borders the warm clear silky waters of the Red Sea. The resorts in the area. like those at Sharm El Sheik and El Gouna, are now one of UK’s most popular holiday destination. For a guaranteed holiday in the sun with every kind of water activity on offer from wind surfing to snorkeling the many choices on offer here will be difficult to beat.
