This way you are close from auto-guaranteeing yourself an unforgettable experience, maybe somewhere close to your loved person, during a honeymoon holiday to Egypt or just on another ordinary family trip to the lands of the pyramids and the world’s biggest River NILE!
ANCIENT TEMPLES OF THE EGYPTIAN KINGDOM
You are definitely going to waste a lot of time and money if the first thing that you are going to do is not visiting the temples (all the existing temples) of Egypt during your holidays. I don’t want to say that this is the first compulsory thing to be done, but you should realize that sooner or later you’ll need to do it because otherwise it won’t work (remember that you have kids and maybe a wife aboard, who are reading books, know history and certainly heard about these places). Anyway, the temples are a great way for you to totally enjoy the beginning of your holiday trip and to show your family that the hot weather is just something so insignificant in comparison with all the amazing tourist destinations that you might have the chance to see. Everyone knows that Egypt got its popularity because of the magnificent temples; there is a several nights cruise along the well known Lake Nasser next to the Abu Simbel temple that you can book. Besides the cost that you’ll pay for you holiday offer package, this is the second extremely necessary thing that you’ll need to invest your leisure money in if you want to have some unforgettable memories.
THE MIGHTY PYRAMIDS ARE WAITING FOR YOU
Even if millions of people are seeing these magnificent human build stone structures that are staying up thousands of years already, more and more people are coming each and every year to Egypt in order to take advantage of their beauties and amazing architectural achievement. If you want some really exotic emotions next to the pyramids, then I suggest that you guys get something to eat and organize a picnic close to them. If you aren’t messing around, no one is going to say anything. However, there is even a historical house called “The Mena House Oberoi” nearby that works as a hotel and can provide all types of accommodation, including a hotel and restaurant in case you are tired, hungry or thirsty. Those people who are visiting these places while looking for a special type of experience are more than welcome to enjoy a never seen before breakfast while enjoying the extraordinary mighty pyramids. Just imagine something like this…
HOW ABOUT A HOT BALLOON RIDE OR A CRUISE ON NILE
Most of the people who are not fond of thinking outside the box when it comes to their travel experience never thought about that it might need necessary to change the perspective of watching those pyramids, valleys and temples for a different type of experience. Nevertheless, everyone got used to watch and visit these from the land. How about trying something new? I’m sure that you’ll like to see these fantastic monuments from a little bit different perspective, let’s say while cruising on Nile or while being in the air, in a hot balloon ride, ABOVE the pyramids themselves. I think that booking such a ride is something that you won’t have the chance to experience anywhere in the world. It is a combination of two absolutely exciting things that might happen to you. The first one is visiting the ancient monuments of Egypt and the second is to enjoy a hot air balloon ride. Totally mind breaking experience. To be honest, this balloon thing is my personal favorite attraction in today’s contemporary Egypt! I don’t think that there is something cooler then to be able to glide of the air and look at various tombs, monuments, etc. Sailing down the River Nile while experiencing the beauty of the same monuments is something really amazing as well, but once again I repeat, my personal favorite is the balloon
DON’T FORGET ABOUT THE RED SEA
I’ve blogged about scuba diving in the Red Sea on your Egyptian holiday before, in a previous article. The purpose of this reminder is to show you how important is not to forget about things that you can enjoy and bring closer when you go towards the Red Sea. It is something outstanding that you won’t be able to experience anywhere else in the world. After the whole massive and crowd hassle of monument and site visiting is over, you can find the peace you need for several days when retreating towards east, to the shores of the beautiful Red Sea. What’s also nice to be aware of is that most of the resorts situated on the beaches of this Sea are only two hours away from the Pyramids so you could once again watch those unique monuments from far away and enjoy the golden sandy beaches at the same time and the sea of course.
ALEXANDRIA
I don’t know why I forgot to mention about Alexandria while talking about cheap holidays to Egypt on this site. Probably because this is the perfect time to mention that this city, while being considered the ancient capital of the Greco-roman Egypt is one of the most charming places on Earth – HONESTLY! It is famous for the well known for its Bibliotheca Alexandria (The Library from Alexandria) built by King Farouk I which is nowadays a museum of various interesting antiques. Don’t forget to visit Alexandria on your next holiday to Egypt.
There are many other interesting activities that you can do while in Egypt, enjoying the “cheapness” of your vacation. However, it’s your choice of selection and you are the only one held responsible for the fun your family is going to have, so watch carefully; don’t forget about scuba diving, Nile cruising and the old markets of Sharm el Sheikh where you can buy a bunch of cheap and interesting souvenirs.
