subject: Being A Part Of Egypt Packages [print this page] When we think of visiting Egypt, the first sight that comes to our mind is lots of sand and camels. But the truth is that Egypt is one of the most sought after tourist destinations in the world and that is why, there are such a large number of Egypt packages available in the market. However, being a part of a holiday package may seem to be boring and devoid of any adventure, the fact is that these packages are a lot of fun in reality.
If you choose to be a part of a historical tour of Egypt, then you will be able to visit several historical sights in Egypt including the Great Pyramids and the Sphinx. There are several other historic places in Egypt including Royal Library of Alexandria that is one of the biggest and most famous libraries from the ancient age.
Some of the Egypt packages will also take you the market which includes hundreds of stalls selling out almost every sort of items. From jewelry and trinkets to hand woven crafts, there is no limit to the souvenirs you will be able to purchase from there. With a huge number of gift shops, you will not need to return back to your home empty-handed.
Being a part of one of the Egypt packages, you will also get an opportunity to participate in Egypt's famous festivals and carnivals. While there are several religion based festivals in Egypt, there are many public ones also. Sham-en-Nisim is a spring festival celebrated here for hundreds of decades. What you will commonly find in these festivals is the diversity of music including Rock and Roll and Egyptian folk music.
Imagine yourself sitting down in an outdoor restaurant, devouring Kushari, a mix of rice, lentils and macaroni, often considered to be the most sumptuous dishes of Egypt. Other dishes you should not miss out to taste include koftas and kabobs, grilled on the skewers over charcoal and made from meats like lamb, rabbit and chicken.
Egypt packages will not be complete without cruising down the River Nile and visiting the seaside. From snorkeling, windsurfing, sailing and swimming in the Red Sea, you will never get bored while being a part of an Egypt package.
Being a part of one of the Egypt packages will offer you all these facilities and much more, in addition to added security and accommodation options as per your choice and budget.
