Egypt is the strange and mysterious gateway to the African continent.
This is the country of legend, myth and unimaginable history - with building techniques and practices that were so advanced it is easy to see how the rumour began that the ancient Egyptians were in fact from outer space.
For as long as travel has existed, Egypt has drawn the curious. The earliest records of foreigners arriving to simply see the sights are as far back as 500 years before Christ, and the tourism industry in Egypt shows no signs of slowing.
The pyramids, perched oddly on the outskirts of Cairo never fail to lose their appeal. Nor does the Sphinx, despite its crumbling face and Nile cruises are a magical way to spend a day or a week.
The Red Sea is a warm marine experience that nicely offsets the heat and for those with a religious bent, a camel ride to Mount Sinai is unmissable.
The capital, Cairo, is awash with the sights, sounds and smells of a living Egypt: The bustling combination of old-world street vendors and glassy, modern buildings and infrastructure. Egypt is a country that is well aware of her tourism dollar and all of the locals are at least bilingual, with many speaking at least three languages.
