Snorkelling in the Red Sea - Chicurel/Arnaud.hemis.fr

This family holiday combines visits to awe-inspiring monuments and ancient world treasures with fun and relaxation on the Nile and by the Red Sea - a varied itinerary and a perfect introduction to a fascinating land. Egypt is a country steeped in history and charm: we delve in to the country's glorious past as we visit Giza's Great Pyramids and the grand temples and tombs at ancient Thebes. These sights (and our great guides) never fail to captivate children and adults alike. Upstream in Aswan we travel by traditional felucca on the Nile and by camel in the desert - we always like to vary our transport! Our journey ends by the Red Sea, famed for its beaches and beautiful reefs. There is time for various excursions or you can simply relax on the golden sands - the choice is yours.
