Egypt is one of the most beautiful destinations in the world, known primarily for its rich contributions to both culture and history. After all, it’s the site of the Pyramids of Giza (one of the seven wonders of the ancient world), alongside a wide range of historical ruins and unique natural wonders. As a result, it is hardly surprising that some 13 million tourists visit Egypt each year.
Here’s why you should be one of them.
To Learn More About History.
As mentioned previously, Egypt has an incredibly well-documented history, which means it is a bucket list destination for those looking to learn more about the world. For example, our range of Egypt Tours will help you see Egypt in an entirely new light by allowing you to take a glimpse into its past and culture – whether you choose to visit the Pyramids, the Egyptian Museum, or cities such as Alexandria.
Throughout your trip, you’ll be in the expert hands of an experienced guide who will be able to answer any questions you might have, making for a truly enriching experience. For example, you’ll be able to learn more about the lives of the famous Pharaohs and rulers of Egypt while seeing first-hand some historical artifacts dating back thousands of years.
To Take In Some Natural Wonders.
Egypt is also home to some stunning scenery that you have to see to believe. By taking part in a tour, you have the opportunity to see these sites first-hand as opposed to through somebody’s Instagram feed. For example, what better way is there to take in the Nile than on a Nile Cruise?
To Soak Up Some Sunshine At The Beaches.
No vacation is complete without taking a little time to relax and unwind – and a beach is a perfect location for this activity. Whether you take along a good book for company or simply want to soak in the sun, there are plenty of stunning beaches littered throughout Egypt that are definitely worth a visit. In fact, Egypt’s beaches, renowned for their crystal-clear oceans and white sand, are considered to be some of the best beaches in the world.
To Sample Some Delicious Cuisine
When traveling, it’s crucial that you try to immerse yourself in the local culture as much as possible. One way in which you can achieve this goal is by treating your tastebuds to some delicious local cuisine – and Egypt certainly has a lot to bring to the (dinner) table in this regard.
If traveling as part of a tour, your guide will be able to recommend a range of local eateries and dishes to you. However, some of the most popular (and delicious) Egyptian dishes include Kushari (a mixture of rice, macaroni, and lentils), Ful wa Ta’meya (Fave Beans and Falafel), and Fiteer Baladi (Egyptian Pizza). Don’t be afraid to be adventurous when trying new foods, as who knows; you may discover a new favorite meal on your travels that you can replicate when you return (reluctantly) home.
