Egypt, a fascinating blend of ancient and modern, is a destination that can boast a fantastic variety of cultural, beach, dive and cruise holidays. It is only a 5 to 6 hour flight from the UK with over one million visitors in 2006 and Egypt is outside the EU therefore not subject to Duty Free abolition.

There is so much to see and do in Egypt. Sample the Egyptian food, a blend of Mediterranean and Middle Eastern influences, enjoy bartering to your hearts content in one of the bazaars for stone carvings, leatherwork and spices, or enjoy some of the entertainment in one of the hotels. Go diving and snorkelling, experience a Nile cruise or venture into the Sinai desert, or visit one of the many famous monuments and archaeological attractions. Wherever and whatever you choose gives you real value for money in Egypt.
