Egypt is not just about monuments, it has much more to offer the modern traveler.
From the fascinating sights of the Pharaohs on the banks of the river Nile to the glorious beaches of the Red Sea at Sharm El Sheikh that boasts some of the best snorkeling and diving in the World. Add to this the fantastic Nile Perch fishing on the mighty Lake Nasser plus the bustling modern city of Cairo and its many bazaars, fantastic restaurants and lively nightlife and you have in Egypt a land of great contrast, where ancient and modern life exist side by side.
The River Nile, considered the life blood of Egypt, divides the country in two, from Lake Nasser, in the south, to the Nile Delta, in the north. This River gives life to an otherwise barren landscape and has in the past been the centre of many Egyptian tales. Egypt never fails to entice visitors and must rank as one of the most spectacular sightseeing destinations in the world. Cairo the capital holds much of this fascination, for in Cairo; you can visit the magnificent mask of King Tutankhamun at the Egyptian Museum, the spectacular Pyramids at Giza along with the mythical Sphinx.
In the eyes of travelling anglers, Egypt also has a place in the history and record books. The damming of the river Nile at Aswan back in the 1960 s resulted in the surrounding area being totally flooded, making one of the largest man made lakes in history. It has also resulted in creating the best habitat for what must be one of the ultimate predators, the Nile Perch. On this holiday you can join either a group or, alternatively, have your own private fishing safari on the lake. Whatever, you decide, one thing is for sure, this holiday will stimulate your mind, exhaust your muscles, captivate your heart and steal your soul.
