For those that want to see more of Egypt, then consider booking a boat trip. You can take these along the Nile or out to depths of the Red Sea. Going on one of these boat trips on your Egypt holidays will allow you to see sights as you’ve never seen them before. The boat trips themselves are well-equipped for tourists, with plenty of food, water and shade on board. To get the ultimate Egyptian experience, try to book a boat trip on a felucca, which is a traditional wooden sailing boat. These will allow you to enjoy a much quieter and smoother trip than you could expect on a speed boat. A very popular choice for an excursion whilst on Egypt holidays is a river cruise down the Nile. These can vary from being day-trips to being a week long. Many of these have stop-offs that will allow you to see the most famous sights including the Valley of the Kings, Edfu Temple, Kom Ombo and Philae Temple in Aswan. During the evenings on these cruises you can expect to enjoy traditional Egyptian entertainment with Nubian music, a Galabayeh night and belly dancing on offer. For those that don’t want to spend several days of their holiday on a cruise ship, book one of the dinner Nile cruises. Many of these are offered around Cairo, allowing you to see the illuminated skyline of the city during the evening. These cruises also offer excellent live music, as well as an incredible dinner. You can expect to enjoy everything from Fried kofta, marinated chicken and Tehina salad on the a la carte menu. With dancing and music throughout the cruise, which lasts about two hours, you’ll have an unforgettable evening cruising down the Nile. For those that are enjoying Hurghada holidays, consider taking a boat across or under the Red Sea. If you want to enjoy diving then consider hiring a speed boat so that you can head out to the reefs between the Giftun Islands, North Abut Ramada or Umm Gamar. Although these reefs are shallower than those that you can find around Sharm el Sheikh, they are home to some extraordinary marine life. If you want to see some dolphins then head to Fanous. Although this isn’t so good for diving, seeing the dolphins in their natural habitat will be an unforgettable experience. To see the Red Sea as you’ve never seen it before, then consider going in a submarine to the depths of the Sea. This is the perfect way to see the sights under the sea without getting wet! The Sinbad submarine is the most popular choice among tourists. On this trip, you can expect to go over 20 metres under the water for around an hour. The submarine has plenty of windows to give you a crystal clear view of the tranquil underwater world.
