Welcome Egypt Travelers

Here all information and travel tips you may need to have a successful
tour in Egypt with less hassle. So if you are thinking about coming to
visit Our beautiful country. Read more in our web site and hopefully
they would be able to provide you with information to make your trip
to Egypt a successful one


In the fifth century BC Herodotus wrote of Egypt that 'nowhere are
there so many marvellous things...nor in the world besides are to be
seen so many things of unspeakable greatness' - and not too much has
changed. The Sphinx, the Nile, ancient Luxor, the pyramids - Egypt's
scope is glorious.

It's not just the Pharaonic monuments tha have drawn travelers to this
country since long before the birth of Christ - it's the legacy of the
Greeks, Romans and early Christians, and the profusion of art and
architecture accumulated from centuries of successive Islamic
dynasties.

Modern Egypt is an amalgam of these legacies and more, juxtaposed with
modern influences. Mud-brick villages stand beside millennia-old ruins
surrounded by buildings of steel and glass. Some townsfolk dress in
long flowing robes, others in Levis and Reeboks, and city traffic
competes with donkey-drawn carts and wandering goats. Nowhere are
these contrasts played out so colorfully as in Cairo, a massive city
thronged with people and ringing to the sound of car horns,
ghetto-blasters and muezzins summoning the faithful to prayer. Egypt
isn't all chaos and clatter, however. It's also a diver's dream dip, a
trek across the sands on a camel or a long lazy punt down the Nile.
