Reasons To
Visit Egypt

  • Ancient Civilisations

    The Ancient Egyptians have attracted more interest and attention than almost any other ancient civilisation. Their feats of engineering, and the details of their lives we can glean from tomb and temple walls make them seem very alive; similarly their obsession with death also fascinates us.

  • Ancient Ruins

    From the temples of Upper Egypt, to the numerous fantastic pyramids near Cairo, Egypt is probably best known for its ancient ruins. Even once away from the ever-popular Nile Valley, there are oasis tombs, and remnants of Roman Alexandria to uncover.

  • Beaches

    The shores of the Red Sea are rightly famous the world over. The water is a stunning clear blue and the coral reefs are simply amazing. Year-round, the sun shines, and there are excursions into the mountainous interior to tempt you away from the sand and lapping waves.

  • Cruises

    Gliding serenely past lush green fields, farmed by ox-drawn ploughshares, admiring the sleek form of a egret is one of the great pleasures of a visit to Egypt. The fact that this glimpse of unchanged rural life also links together some of the greatest historical monuments in Egypt makes a Nile cruise a must!

  • Museums

    The Museum of Egyptian Antiquities is one of the world's great treasure troves, crammed with artefacts from the country's illustrious past. Other, much smaller museums are more than worthy of your time: Luxor museum is especially noteworthy.

  • Souqs & Shopping

    As you twist and turn deeper into the Khan El Khalili, passing under Mamluke arches and admiring Ottoman 'mashrabiya' window screens, you're drawn into a traditional world where charismatic vendors try to persuade you to purchase handicrafts and goods manufactured in a tiny workshop behind the shop front.

The Oberoi Sahl Hasheesh in Hurghada is a luxurious resort. It's based around a private beach with beautiful white sand and offers panoramic views of the Red Sea.

Rooms

The resort has 102 suites, divided into four different categories. All are spacious and elegantly appointed in traditional Arabic style and benefit from their own outdoor courtyards. Facilities include air-conditioning, TV and walk-in wardrobes.

Deluxe Suites

The 63 Deluxe Suites at the Oberoi Sahl Hasheesh are located in lush lawns. They have a spacious bedroom and a living room separated by Arabic-style arches. The bedroom offers a choice of either king-size or a Hollywood twin bed. The bathroom has a stunning marble sunken bath and separate shower cubicle and a glass wall overlooking a private open-air garden.

Superior Deluxe suites

The 21 Superior Deluxe Suites differ from the Deluxe Suites only in their very close proximity to the beach, giving wonderful views and very easy access to the shoreline.

Grand suites

The larger 12 Grand Suites are again similar in layout and style to the Deluxe Suites. The difference here is that they have a larger courtyard garden with a swimming pool that is heated in the cooler months.
