The monuments and mysteries of this ancient region have survived for thousands of years, and today remain a top destination for travelers. This historic country is a bridge between Africa and the Middle East, and is home to temples, pyramids, and tombs, as well as bustling modern cities. Egypt vacation packages include not only the ancient wonders of the Pharaohs, but also first class resorts, restaurants, and hotels.

It is difficult to see everything that this country offers in one short trip, and first-time visitors often find that group tours can provide the most value. They frequently showcase Egypt vacations that include airfare and ground transportation, and most feature a guide fluent in your own language. Many people feel more comfortable in a group, and a planned tour can fit the most sights into a limited time frame.
There are literally hundreds of packaged Egypt tours to choose from. First time travelers can narrow down those choices with a little preliminary research to find which may be most interesting personally. Knowing the background of these ancient sites makes a visit more enjoyable, and helps bring history to life. The options and styles of tours include combinations of scenic, historic and even luxury vacations.
The Nile River is the lifeblood of this country, and has sustained this region from the beginning. Nile cruises often begins in Cairo with a visit to pyramids at Giza and Saqqara. Some include side-trips to Alexandria, and often to the Abu Simbel Temple in Aswan. From Aswan, luxury cruises explore the Aswan High Dam before arriving in Luxor, and the fabled Valley of the Kings.
The best time to take a Nile cruise is during the winter months, between October and April. Summers in this desert region are uniformly hot, but the most luxurious cruise cabins are like floating hotels, and feature air conditioning as well as private bathrooms. For those seeking a more authentic experience, travel by felluca, or ancient Egyptian sailboat, is recommended.
Visitors often have the choice of continuing overland to the Red Sea, which features the newest resorts along what is becoming known as the Red Sea Riviera. This developing tourist area is home to ultra-modern luxury facilities, and is well known for its world-class snorkeling and diving. These resorts welcome visitors with a wide choice of activities, and can include meals and accommodations.
Prices range from the luxurious to the budget-conscious, but the sights are the same regardless of the cost. Nearly all tours include assistance upon arrival and departure, and air-conditioned transport to and from airports. Personal beverages, tips and other gratuities are usually not included, and any side excursions via air are the traveler's responsibility.
Egypt vacation packages offer something for nearly any traveler. Advanced planning is the best way to ensure seeing all the important sights without wasting any time or expense, and makes selecting the best tour package simpler. Once you have decided which locations must be seen, visit one of many websites that feature Egypt travel packages, and find one that suits your travel budget.
