Egypt 'is great for adventurous travellers'


If it's an action or adventure holiday you are after, there are few better places to head to than Egypt.

That's according to Jenna McMurray, from the QMI Agency, who wrote for canoe.ca that while Egypt boasts many beautiful beaches, restaurants and resorts, many other places do as well.

The jewel in Egypt's crown, she claims, is its rich history and monuments which are dotted right across the land.

Ms McMurray says that an obvious place to start one's Egyptian adventure is to head for the pyramids.

"The Great Pyramids and the Great Sphinx of Giza, located on the outskirts of Cairo, are likely the country's best-known features and though they are crawling with tourists, they are well worth your time," she writes.

However, an adventure holiday in Egypt is about more than its pyramids, with Ms McMurray adding that a trip to Aswan in the south is a must in order to explore a different culture and way of life to that found in many other parts of the country.
Anthony Sattin, writing in the Observer, recently recommended travellers make their way to Aswan, which has a rich history but is often overlooked by visitors.
