THE EGYPTIAN EXPERIENCE

THE EGYPTIAN EXPERIENCE

KarnakEver since Herodotus, the ancient Greek historian, first described Egypt as "the gift of the Nile ", she has been capturing the imagination of all who visit her. The awe- inspiring monuments, left by the Pharaohs, Greeks and Romans, attract thousands of visitors each year. The Pyramids, temples, tombs, monasteries and mosques are only part of the country's fascination. Modern Egypt - where mud brick villages stand beside Pharaonic ruins surrounded by towering steel and glass Karnakbuildings and goatskin tents of the Bedouins -is at the cultural cross-roads of the ancient and the modern. Through all this the Nile flows serene and majestic, the lifeblood of Egypt as it has been since the beginning of history. The real attraction of this country however lies in its incredible natural beauty and in the overwhelming hospitality of the Egyptian people.


SCUBA DIVING IN THE RED SEA

Diving in the Red SeaThe Red Sea has remained wild, relatively untouched, desolate and pristine. It's fascinating mix of sea teeming with life and the barren desert surrounding will intrigue you forever. The long, narrow Red Sea is surrounded by arid mountains on both sides. No rivers flow into it, and the influx from the Indian Ocean , is extremely slight - factors which create very distinctive conditions. This includes a very high salt content, requiring divers to use more weights. The Red Sea can become rather cool during the winter months of November through to February and the wearing of wet suits are recommended. Diving in the turquoise water of the Red Sea is considered by most scuba divers as the best in the world. Dive sites like Ras Mohammed, the Tiran islands, the wrecks of the Thistlegorm and the Dunraven, undoubtedly justifies this number one position.
