Egypt
Ancient Egypt was one of the earliest civilizations in the world and that can still be seen today within some famous buildings such as the Sphinx and the Pyramids of Giza and the archaeological sites around Luxor. Just a 5 hours flight gives you the guarantee of sun all year round with temperatures of 20 ° C or warmer. The weather is as warm as the Egyptian people, who are known to be extremely hospitable. In addition to the wonderful sandy beaches, Egypt has one of the most beautiful diving destinations in the world along the Red Sea!
Safety:
Despite the fact that Egypt has had a turbulent Arab spring, it has been politically very stable in recent years and it is relatively safe across the country. No need to worry though, because we will make sure you will travel and stay in a safe area. However, like everywhere else in the world, we can’t give you 100% safety guarantee. The necessary precaution and alertness are recommended as always when travelling and staying abroad. Therefore, we will make you aware of all the do’s and don’ts in Egypt during our specific safety meeting.
