All opinions are mine and mine alone.
A place is known for its many treasures and stunning history. There is much more than meets the eye. Some people might ask is Egypt safe to travel right now? And the answer is yes. It is one of the most hospitable places in the Middle East.
So if you are ready for turquoise waters, golden sand and so much more, then Egypt is the place for you.
River
Home to the longest river in the world, the Nile River is something pretty impressive. It is around 6,695km in length and flows all the way to the Mediterranean. Aside from the mind-blowing length, you can visit many attractions through the Nile. Aswan and Luxor are two of them.
Scuba
If you have the heart of an explorer, then you are certainly going to want to head into the Red Sea. You can book a scuba session and have a truly unforgettable experience with the fishes. The corals are bright and colourful, and the fish are so beautiful you might not want to come back to the surface. There are a few different driving options too. Day boats, shore dives, pinnacles, drifts, walls, wrecks and liveaboards too.
Water Sports
Ready to take your holiday to the next level? Then you can windsurf to your heart’s content. Champions from around the world choose this location to train in because the weather and steady, safe waters are perfect for it. You can head to Safaga, El Gouna, Ras Sudr or Dahab for a session.
There are also windsurfing schools too if you want to make the most of it.
Horseback
If you aren’t keen on a safari on a quad bike, or a camel then horseback riding might be the right thing for you. There are a few options. You might head along the sandy mountains that overlook the lake in Fayoum, by the great pyramids or a beautiful ride down by the crystal blue beaches in Hurghada.
Food
Middle East food is rich in flavour and culture, and Egyptian food is influenced, but the countries around it too.
For breakfast, you might see Ful as an option on the menu. It is made with fava beans, oil and salt. They are soaked overnight and cooked for hours. It might just be the most popular food in Egypt. It will be accompanied by eggs, cheese and bread.
Macaroni Bechamel is a filling and tasty pasta dish. Mincemeat is the star of the show, and you will see the chopped onions, and the tomato paste brings huge flavour. The bechamel sauce tops it off and makes it filling and tasty.
And finally, it is rich in culture. From the food to the buildings and the way of life. There is a range of different accents, unique traditions, different fashions per city and distinctive foods for you to try.
“(Egypt) is a great place for contrasts: splendid things gleam in the dust.”
― Gustave Flaubert, Flaubert in Egypt: A Sensibility on Tour
