Egypt Travel Info

Egypt is one of the world’s oldest civilizations, with a history spanning over 5,000 years. It’s the land of the pharaohs, home to awe-inspiring pyramids, grand temples, and mysterious tombs. Ancient Egypt's legacy still fascinates scholars and travelers alike, with sites like the Pyramids of Giza, Karnak Temple, and the Valley of the Kings, the gateways to a lost era.

Over centuries, Egypt has been shaped by Greek, Roman, Islamic, and Coptic influences. You’ll see this fusion in Cairo’s medieval mosques, Alexandria’s Greco-Roman ruins, and the colorful Coptic churches scattered across the country. Today, Egypt is a living museum where past and present coexist—a place where ancient hieroglyphs whisper their secrets and modern city life hums with energy.

Best Places to Visit in Egypt

Pyramids of Giza
Pyramids of Giza & the Sphinx

No trip to Egypt is complete without seeing the legendary Pyramids of Giza. Built over 4,500 years ago, these massive structures continue to amaze with their scale and precision. The complex includes three main pyramids—Khufu (Great Pyramid), Khafre, and Menkaure—along with the mysterious Great Sphinx, which has stood guard for centuries. Climb up to the Panoramic Point for breathtaking views or venture inside the Great Pyramid for a closer look at its inner chambers.

Luxor temples
Luxor & the Valley of the Kings

One of the greatest pieces of evidence of the ancient grandeur, Luxor is packed with incredible archaeological sites. The Karnak Temple Complex stuns visitors with its massive columns and grand avenues, while the Temple of Hatshepsut showcases one of Egypt’s most powerful female rulers. Across the Nile lies the Valley of the Kings, where over 60 pharaohs, including Tutankhamun, were laid to rest in elaborately decorated tombs. Don’t miss the Colossi of Memnon, two towering statues that once guarded a lost temple.

Abu Simbel temple in Aswan
Abu Simbel Temples

Located near the Sudanese border, the Abu Simbel Temples are a breathtaking tribute to Pharaoh Ramses II. The larger temple features four colossal statues of Ramses, while the smaller temple is dedicated to his wife, Queen Nefertari. One of the most astonishing facts about Abu Simbel is its relocation in the 1960s to save it from rising waters after the construction of the Aswan High Dam. Twice a year, during the Sun Festival, the temple aligns perfectly so that the sun illuminates the inner sanctum—an event worth witnessing.

The Nile River
The Nile River

The Nile River, the world’s longest river, has been Egypt’s lifeline for thousands of years. Today, a Nile cruise from Luxor to Aswan (or vice versa) is one of the most scenic ways to experience the country. Glide past riverside temples, palm-fringed villages, and breathtaking sunsets. For a more intimate experience, take a traditional felucca sailboat and enjoy the gentle rhythm of the Nile at sunset.

The Red Sea Riviera
The Red Sea Riviera

Egypt’s Red Sea coastline is a haven for sunseekers and underwater explorers. The vibrant cities of Sharm El Sheikh, Hurghada, and Dahab offer world-class scuba diving and snorkeling in coral-rich waters. Ras Mohammed National Park and the Blue Hole in Dahab are famous dive sites teeming with marine life. If you prefer to stay above water, enjoy windsurfing, and kitesurfing, or simply relax on the pristine beaches.
