Egypt
Egypt is the home of history and as diverse as any country we know. Let Travel Light take you from the Western Desert oases to Mt Sinai including the Red Sea , the Nile River and more historical wonders than we can list!
Impressive sites abound throughout Egypt. Your Egypt tour could include the Red Sea with glistening crystal waters, beautiful sandy beaches, the inspiring Sinai desert, the great Giza Pyramids, the Valley of the Kings. Many of the listed tours of egypt include a Nile River cruise or felucca journey.
Egypt brings visions of sheiks on camels, and oases sparkling in the desert, but this land brings so much more. Mountains and beaches colide with vibrant people bred to live in the harshest conditions. Whether you are looking to explore ancient ruins, climb Mt Sinai or glide along the Nile on a felicca or Nile cruiser, we can take you there with a large selection of Egypt Tours.
CLIMATE: The weather is predictably dry, sunny and warm most of the year with very little rainfall. The winter temperatures are similar to the Eurpean spring. June, July and August are rather hot, but the evenings are refreshingly cooler due to the desert breezes that blow into the Nile Valley |
