Egypt is an established travel destination, chosen every year by many tourists and travelers attracted to the land of the ancient Egyptian civilization, not only for its millenary history but for the many opportunities it offers to make your trip unforgettable. A trip to Egypt is always the perfect choice if you are interested in the historical, artistic and cultural heritage of inestimable value in Egypt, but also in natural landscapes, varied and breathtaking, in an atmosphere of a thousand and one nights.
Have you always been passionate about Egyptology and can’t wait to discover the pharaonic history? The range of choice is very wide and varied: starting from chaotic Cairo, which offers you this and much more. Who hasn’t fantasized about seeing the pyramids of Giza and the Sphinx live when studying ancient Egypt at school? You can also get lost among the perfectly preserved ancient treasures exhibited in the Egyptian museum. 2020 is also the year of the inauguration of the New Great Museum, located a short distance from the plateau of the pyramids of Giza. In the metropolis of a thousand sounds, smells and colors, you will also be able to admire the testimonies of the Islamic and Coptic civilizations. A phenomenal cocktail of history that will drag you into a vortex where past and present are exquisitely blended.
But the best of ancient Egypt awaits you further south, in Upper Egypt: between Luxor, a city with a thousand-year history and Aswan, otherwise known as the “pearl of the Nile”, where the concentration of evidence of the glorious Egyptian civilization is unparalleled. Suffice it to say that Luxor has often been defined as “the largest open-air museum in the world”, Aswan, will win you over for the magnificent natural setting in which its temples stand, perfectly immersed in the blue of the river.
The temples, buildings and colossal statues have come down to us, valiantly resisting the elements and the inexorable passage of time, making us privileged heirs of a history of inestimable value. The best way to enjoy Upper Egypt is to join a Nile cruise, the perfect combination of nature and history await you aboard a journey on the relaxing calm waters of the Nile. It will be great to wake up early to admire from the sun deck of your cruise the spectacle of the colorful hot air balloons rising into the serene and peaceful sky of the city of Luxor, contemplating the Luxor temple on one side and the west bank on the other. Take advantage of your arrival in Aswan to pay a visit also to Abu Simbel, reachable in a few hours, it is definitely worth going there to see with your own eyes this imposing and fascinating world heritage site, saved from the flooding resulting from the construction of the large dam, thanks to an international project of great importance. Here you can also admire Lake Nasser and the great Aswan High Dam.
Finally, if you want to discover classic Egypt, you cannot miss the opportunity to relax on a beautiful beach and admire the coral reef, adding to your itinerary one of the wonderful destinations of the Red Sea: Sharm el Sheikh, Dahab, Marsa Alam, Hurghada. If you love diving it is worth going to the Ras Mohammed nature reserve, near Sharm El-Sheikh. In any case, all the options of the Red Sea are a source of excitement and adventure, crystal clear waters and colorful and spectacular seabeds are guaranteed.
It is no coincidence that Egyptians speak of their homeland as “Umm el-Donya”, which in Arabic means “the mother of the world”, Egypt surprises visitors with its extreme beauty and invites you to visit it again, because like it is said in Egypt “whoever drinks the water of the Nile is destined to return”.
