Egypt Travel Facts

Egypt is where civilisation began - a country of pyramids, pharaonic temples, and a 6,650 km river that has sustained life in the desert for millennia. The Giza Pyramids and the Sphinx sit on Cairo's doorstep, while the Valley of the Kings and Luxor Temple line the Nile 650 km to the south. Beyond the ancient sites, Egypt offers Red Sea diving and snorkelling that ranks among the world's best, Saharan desert adventures, and a capital city of 20 million people with a food scene, cafe culture, and energy that never stops.
