Weather in Egypt

Even though you’ll be staying on the cruise ship most of the time, you still have to remember the effects of the weather to your holiday. Egypt is a very hot and humid place so it’s important to be hydrated all the time. Always carry bottled water with you. The weather also affects the schedule of activities as most of the trips are made early in the morning.

Notable Destinations

Abu Simbel – featuring Ramses II statues, it’s one of the most exhilarating statues in the world. The statue is located at the entrance of a temple.  The Hypostyle Hall is never missed by any tourist passing by Luxor City. The tombs of Tutankhamun and other Pharaohs are found here. Located just outside of Luxor City, it’s another place that should not be missed by any tourist.

Galabayas is the traditional dress in Egypt and most cruises have a theme party. You can purchase it while on land or you can order the dress while onboard your cruise ship.

As the name suggests, the trip is often limited to rivers (and canals) which is actually a good thing since it allows the tourist to visit various parts of the country without too much effort. In Europe, countries that have beautiful rivers often offer this type of holiday: Germany, France, Austria or Hungary to name just a few.

The biggest advantage of river cruises aside from the fee is the ease of booking. Your travel agency can book this type of cruises a week or two before the departure date. Another advantage is the relaxation on documentation.

Since many of the river cruises happen within a single country, tourists don’t have to bring out their passports every time they dock and visit a tourist attraction.

In general, cheap cruises will be found as last minute cruises and late bookings with short period ahead as companies will try to fill unsold cabins. Cabin only deals are the most discounted option on sale, which nonetheless includes all the requirements to have a relaxing break out of the cruise.

The cheapest cruises can be found in particular for short weekend cruise getaways, such as cruises travelling from English Channel across cities on the Belgian and French coast. On board facilities will include gyms, restaurants and bars to fully enjoy the trip.

More exploratory types of cruises that can also be found at affordable rates are cruises across the North Sea. Some of them usually depart from the port of Leith and sail along the Scottish coast, arriving in Lerwick on the Shetland Islands, the following morning. From there, the trip continues to Norway, with a stop to the port of Bergen. Once in Bergen, travellers will have lots of time to visit the town but also the surroundings and, in particular, the fascinating landscape of Western Fjords.

While cheap cruises may not offer all of the facilities that can be found on expensive or luxury cruises, there still is a broad range of available choice for food, leisure and entertainment offers on board. These ones are to be tailored depending on passengers’ choice. Cabin only bookings will then prove to be the most economically convenient option for those who have always wanted to try the experience.
