Egypt, the land of the last survivor of the seven wonders of the ancient world, the pyramids by the banks of the River Nile, is still one of the leading destinations for a perfect solo or family getaway. Talk to the experts at White Magic Travels about the packages they already made on Egypt holidays with customising options in certain areas to pave the path of witnessing one of the most incredible sights of the world, the land that was once ruled by the Pharaohs who created the magnanimous pyramids, the temples of Abu Simbel, the sphinx and many more.
Herodotus once said, “Egypt is the gift of the Nile”. However, the fact is that the Nile is the only reason the country has remained alive, thanks to its continuous water source in this arid region. Your ardent desire to explore a place of historical interest can only be quenched in Egypt. Instead of visiting the place abruptly, buying a packaged tour including flight tickets, sightseeing, accommodation and conveyance can be an effective way to save both time and money.
Eminent OTAs design multiple tour packages on the same destination to offer variations in terms of days, sightseeing tours, other add-ons, including boat or yacht rides and other activities. While exploring the Egyptian tour packages or Kerala holiday packages, for instance, check out the itinerary minutely before selecting one from the pre-made tours. However, you might be given the option to eliminate and add things as you can personalise any holiday package to Egypt after asking the travel agent.
For instance, if you want an upgrade on the flight to enjoy a comfortable international flight, then go for it. The same goes for upgrading or downgrading the accommodations that are already mentioned in the Egypt or the Maldives package that you are exploring. According to the budget you maintain and the time you have, along with the expectations of exploring the finest places of Egypt and Jordan, you should go ahead with the personalisation process.
What must your Egyptian package itinerary include?
Explore the Nile Valley
Voyaging on the longest river in the world, the Nile, with a glorious past of beholding one of the greatest civilisations of mankind on its banks, you can have a journey of a lifetime. Usually, it’s a ten-day tour that starts from Cairo and ends at Abu Simbel. This is the river upon which the Pharaohs used to travel. Think of the golden yacht of Cleopatra that used to sail on this far-stretched route of 725 miles before fate told a different tale to her, like any ruler of previous times.
Only by voyaging on the River Nile can you witness the ancient temples situated on the ‘Kemet’ or the black land, according to the locals. It is the fertile banks of the river that still hold those ancient relics, holding tough through five thousand years by withstanding the desert climate, storms and age.
The yacht stops at various banks like Cairo, Luxor, Kom Ombo, Aswan, Abu Simbel, and so on. Each of these places has the mind-boggling temples holding the shrines of Gods and Goddesses worshipped by the ancient Egyptians. You will also see the Pyramids, the Sphinx and the National Museum of Egyptian civilisation. The guide will share more details with you, along with how to book tickets and other things like places to shop for genuine souvenirs.
Explore the Red Sea & Sinai
After the Nile voyage, the next thing that tourists usually show interest in is a voyage to the Red Sea. You can buy a seven-day tour or can also buy a 24-hour or 48- hour trip according to the time you can offer, and your budget must also be a concern. Likewise, you design a holiday package to Dubai, Bali or explore the Las Vegas holiday packages and customise them according to time and budget, do the same here while planning the next voyage.
Though you can skip it and stay in the land, ride a camel or enjoy the dune rides in 4×4 SUVs, chances of missing some of the iconic sightseeing will be there on the cards. Especially, if you are eager to experience underwater aquatic adventures, including scuba diving, snorkelling, and see the technicoloured dreamy surface inside the sea where the distinguished marine life can truly excite you.
Stay at a resort by the Red Sea to witness the pristine, sprawling beaches. Don’t miss out on the exquisite delicacies that the chefs offer at their restaurants with a touch of tradition and contemporary at the same time.
Your sightseeing should include Sharm el-Sheikh, Ras Mohamed National Park for the perfect Bedawi Eco Camping experience and other attractions. Also explore St Catherine, Dahab, Nuweiba, along with other sightseeing destinations with a guided tour.
