River Nile Cruises are the perfect way to add a bit of adventure to your Egyptian holiday according to a travel report in The Guardian recently.
With air tickets becoming cheaper and more of us able to afford to travel abroad, we are choosing to go on holidays and indulge in more once in a lifetime experiences such as River Nile cruises.
Travelling to Egypt would not be complete without a cruise on the Nile as it takes you closer to the real Egyptian way of life and culture. While floating along the Nile, you can watch life passing by at a much slower pace than that seen on a packed (and over-priced) tourist bus on a trail.
Seeing the sights from the Nile can be just as exciting, if not more so as there are no traffic jams or no chances of getting lost either. There is also the chance to stop off at some of the world's most impressive monuments, including one of the wonders of the ancient world- the Egyptian Pyramids.
History lovers will be spoilt for choice as the Pyramids and Sphinx structures will leave you in awe and in wonder as they are truly impressive.
Some of the world's best known celebrities are also big fans of the country. Alicia Keys gave birth to her first child with Swizz Beatz on 14 October at New York's St Luke's Roosevelt Hospital.
After visiting the country in 2007 and falling in love with its many charms it came as no surprise to learn that she has named the baby, Egypt Dauode Dean.
Proud father, Beatz was unable to contain his excitement at the birth by writing on Twitter: " I'm so thankful for everything I have been blessed with in my life."
