Egypt
Egypt has one of the world’s richest cultural heritages and tourists from across the globe flock to see the attractions of this ancient land. The country has played a starring role down the ages in the development of human culture, and it is full of monuments and relics of great significance. Playing a central role is the capital city of Cairo where you can visit the National Museum, which houses the treasures of Tutankhamen, as well as see the Pyramids of Giza and the Great Sphinx.
Near Luxor, you can board a Nile Cruise and explore the Valley of the Kings with its many attractions including the Necropolis and Temple of Horus. There are also desert and birding tours to enjoy. Another awesome attraction off the eastern coastline is the Red Sea, with its superb coral reefs, amazing collection of wrecks, and shark encounters. Egypt offers the best value liveaboard cruises in the world, and these promise an unforgettable vacation when combined with a visit to Cairo or a Nile cruise.
