Red Sea & Sinai Attractions

The world’s most famous stretch of coast, it was here that Moses allegedly parted a great sea and set free the Hebrew enslaved people. Famed for its brilliant turquoise waters and splendid coral reefs, the Red Sea Coast attracts thousands of tourists.

It’s Egypt’s most developing area, with more hotels and resorts than anywhere else. The Red Sea coast can be frustrating for independent travelers weary of package tourism, though it shouldn’t be overlooked altogether.

Sinai, a region of stark beauty, has been a place of refuge, conflict, and curiosity for thousands of years. Most international tourists head to the glitzy European-style resorts of Sharm el-Sheikh, of which hundreds are vying for beach space.

Enjoy the natural beauty of this colorful region of Egypt’s Red Sea cities, one of the country’s most well-preserved regions, in which you will learn about all of the towns along the Red Sea, from Sharm El Sheikh to Taba. In addition to getting into a variety of special water-based activities at the beach, you should also make a point of visiting the various enjoyable venues, such as spas and other places where you can unwind after part in some of the beach’s fascinating water-based activities.

Most are amenable enough places for sea-and-sand holidays, though independent travelers prefer the eternally laid-back town of Dahab.

Of course, the natural charm of Sinai is its stunning desert and marine environments – among the highlights are snorkeling or diving amid teeming coral reefs, close-up encounters with traditional Bedouin culture, and following pilgrims’ roads to biblical sites.

Whatever captures your fancy, however, a visit to Sinai will be one of the most memorable parts of your Egyptian travels.

How much should i tip in Egypt

The amount depends on the situation. It is good at the restaurant to give between 5 to 10% of the instructions to the waiter directly even when adding service to the bill.

However, in some museums, such as the Egyptian Museum of Antiquities, and some historical sites, such as the Valley of the Kings in Luxor, photography is prohibited and visitors are required to leave their cameras at the reception desk before entering.

What are the most important historical mosques in Cairo?

Cairo, dubbed “the city of a thousand minarets”, is characterized by a large number of magnificent historical mosques. The most prominent of these are the Mohammed Ali Mosque in the Citadel of Salah al-Din, which was built at the beginning of the nineteenth century, the Sultan Hassan Mosque, built-in 1361, and the Al-Azhar Mosque, built-in 970 AD, which was restored and expanded several times thereafter, the Mosque of Amr ibn al-As. The first mosque in Africa was built in 640 AD, the Mosque of Ahmed Ibn Tulun, built-in 878 AD, and the Mosque of Hakim, built 1013 AD. Tourists are welcome in all these mosques on any day, except Friday.

Why stay in a hotel near the pyramids and not in the city center?

If you are in Cairo just for a few days, it will be easier for you to see locations starting from a base in Giza. Traffic from the city center to the pyramids can cause the journey to take more than an hour, which means an early start if you want to experience a full day, especially if you need to enter the Great Pyramid when you are in the plateau before 0800. If you are in Cairo For a while, the hotels in the Pyramids are all resort-based, built on an acre of land with outdoor pools and comfortable areas, something that downtown hotels can’t really afford. This is why you tend to find downtown hotels like towers; extremely long and narrow, while Giza Pyramid hotels are limited in height, but they cover more land.

The cost also comes into the equation as a simple 4-star hotel in the downtown area is more expensive than a 5-star resort in the pyramids. Cairo resembles most of the major cities in the world in this regard, as the ownership of the city center is much more expensive. Although it may seem that downtown hotels carry the luxury of being able to wander around the area for shopping, restaurants, etc. Most Pyramid hotels offer free shuttle buses to allow you to do the same, plus taxis are not expensive and will still work out cheaper in the end.

Tips For Traveling Responsibly
  • Learn the language. Although English is widely spoken as a second language in Egypt, make an effort to learn a bit of Arabic. Knowing the basic greetings will win the respect of locals, and a firm command of the numbers will give you some bargaining power.
  • Sail the Nile. Until recently feluccas were the only sail-powered option, but there are now a growing number of cruises, most of them operating between Esna and Aswan.
  • Rent a bike. The opening of the bridge across the Nile in Luxor has seen a huge rise in the number of coaches and taxis on the West Bank, with all the usual issues of pollution. But bikes are easy to rent on both sides of the river and slow traveling gives a different perspective on the country you pass through.
  • Don’t bribe guards. Do give them a present if you want – they are paid so little that any amount will be welcome. But don’t exploit your economic superiority by bribing them to let you do things you shouldn’t do.
  • Dress conservatively. Rural areas in the deserts are home to very conservative communities that do not see many travelers. Be cautious with revealing dress, showing affection in public and any behavior that may offend sensibilities.
  • Use a pump. For the vast majority of travelers, drinking bottled water is not so much a necessity as it is a convenience. However, you can go easy on the plastic by bringing your own pump and filtering the tap water.
