The cradle of all civilizations; Egypt has been a cultural exchange hub in the Middle East for thousands of years.
With the beautiful generous Nile running through the heart of it; journeys and millions of stories have been written on each side of the country. Starting from the far west at lying on the Mediterranean, passing by Alexandria, and ending the beautiful sandy coast at Arish, Egypt grows down to meet the Red Sea with the magnificent coral reefs and mountains hugging the beautiful cities of Sinai. Right in the middle you would find crazy Cairo; the city that literally never sleeps, with beautifully colorful, loud and lively streets and a friendly smile on the face of everyone, that is so diverse and unique to every Egyptian, yet cannot be compared to any other.
And embracing the shores of the Nile; from Giza to Luxor, Aswan and Nubia, Ancient Egypt is still standing strong and spelling out magic that you would only find when you’re standing in front of the Pyramids, walking through the temples or enjoying a sunny Nile cruise. Egypt is a lot more than a few landmarks; it’s the people, the generosity, the kindness, the mystery and the charm in the air. There’s a saying that if you ever drink from the Nile, you won’t help, but visit Egypt again. Today Egypt proudly embarks the fragrance of the enchanting past and ancient memories, with the fascination and glamour of the modern world.
