My first stop in Egypt was Sharm El Sheikh to board the Thomson Celebration. As I have reviewed that separately this review will concentrate on the places in Egypt that I have visited. Since the first scheduled stop was Jordan, the first 'real' Egyptian destination was Cairo where we visited the Pyramids of Giza. This was one of the main reasons I went on that particular cruise and I couldn't wait for the planned excursion on day 4. The trip cost £32 for the trip to Cairo which included time at the viewing point, some time at the Pyramids themselves, a trip to the Sphinx and then an afternoon shopping in Cairo. It was an early ...  Read the complete review

I have been to Egypt twice now, and I think it is the one place on this planet that everyone should go to before they leave this mortal coil. Ive enjoyed virtually everything about this Country, and once I have explored a little more of the world, it is a place I wouldn't hesitate to go back to. Both times I have been I have stayed in area of Egypt called Sharm El Sheikh, this is an area on the South Peninsula of Egypt mainly made up of Hotels and shops, it is an area very much created for the Westerner.

Our wedding was booked. All we needed now was the perfect honeymoon to complete it. When we headed off to the travel agents, we initially had Cuba in mind…salsa dancing…cocktails…the sexy Spanish lingo….our hearts were set. Unfortunately, flights only went midweek and being a teacher, it was bad enough persuading my boss to give me just one day off…never mind another 4! It was a few days later when Richard presented me with the envelope…”open it” he said trying to hide his excitement. Inside were two tickets to Sharm El Sheikh on the southern tip of the Sinai Peninsula in Egypt. We were staying in what looked like the most wonderful resort I’d ever ...  Read the complete review

For the last ten years i've always been to either Cyprus, Greece or Spain until this year when I felt like something different. My other half and I booked a week in Egypt followed by a week Cruising the Nile, and I must say it is the best holiday I have ever had. I have already booked for next year. We were surfing the web for ideas when we found a site called www.Justegypt.com We couldn't make our minds up out of Diving in Sharm el Sheikh, Lazing by the pool in El Gouna or doing the Pyramids etc. So we eventually decided on doing the touristy bit followed by a Nile Cruise. It was excellent!!! we visited all the main tourist parts which was excellent ...  Read the complete review

I was one of a party of fifty 13-15 year-old boys (both black and white) from Harare who landed at Cairo International Airport - after a ten hour flight on a cramped Egypt Air plane with loose seats and only one nice looking flight attendant. After discovering that our luggage had been tampered with, we walked out of the airport into a wall of heat. A long hot dirty ride through the centre of Cairo showed us a true Third World city of both slums and palaces - far busier and far dirtier than Harare. The hotel in Giza, near the Pyramids, was five star. According to our teacher we had sausages made from cat for our first breakfast. A ...  Read the complete review
