Egypt is a fascinating land of diversity. The historic treasures are amongst the finest in the world. The deserts are unspoilt and simply breathtaking. Egypt has a wealth of world heritage sites, some well known others less so. World-class hotel facilities are available and the tourist services are warm and friendly. Egypt consists of three tour regions: 1 - What is often refered to as 'Classic Egypt', from the Nile delta, Cairo along the Nile through Luxor, Aswan and onto Abu Simbel in the far south. It is by far the most inhabited part of Egypt, with the most towns and historic sights. 2 - The Western Desert,  (Eastern Sahara Desert)  incompassing the White Desert, The Black Desert, The Great Sand Sea and other desert regions. Using GPS and satelite technology we operate, along with Egyptian specialist Heisham Nissim, the furthest reaching tours in this area. 3 - The Sinai Peninsula, an incredibly diverse area of spectacular beaches, high range granite mountain area including Mt Sinai - the highest mountain in Egypt and site of Saint Catherines Monastery (UNESCO) and the picuresque sandstone area. It is important  when thinking of Egypt, that we do not forget that Egypt is a developing country.  It has a rich and sometimes stark culture. As a tourist in Egypt you will witness a contast between wealth and poverty not found in the west. Although we endeavour to use the very best of the facilities available us, travelers must bear in mind that Western standard fascilities are not always available and accept they are in a mainly Muslim country with different mentality and social behaviour. As a tourist you will automaticaly attract attention from people selling their wares. Frequently these people will try to put your guide in an uncomfortable situation. Be polite and assertive, there is to need get upset from over-eager venders. They are simply playing their part in a longstanding tradition. Dress -  At religous sites for both men and women: long clothes covering shoulders, elbows and knees are neccessary,.  In fact when touring in Egypt it is adviseable to wear loose long cotton clothing when out and about. It's comfortable, cool, protects you from the suns rays and always culturaly appropriate. When at hotel pools or at the beaches you can don your bikini - don't go topless though.
