An impressive collection of heritage and its energetic, colorful present makes Egypt a wonderful tourist destination. The focus of most visits remains the great monuments of the Nile Valley, combined with a few days spent exploring the souks, mosques and madrassas of Cairo. Egyptian travel also encompasses snorkeling and diving along the Red Sea coasts, camel trips into the mountains of Sinai and visits to the Coptic monasteries of the Eastern Desert.
