My wife and I took a tour out to this Oasis and it's startling how a lush and green, and populated, place can just spring up in the middle of nowhere! And there's so much history there it's unbelievable! Totally different culture, great people.

From Sharm el Sheikh we did a fantastic day tip to Cairo on a well appointed air conditioned bus. The guide spoke impeccable English and was very knowledgeable in Egyptian history. I highly recommend the felucca trip (sailing boat) down the river Nile and the opportunity to see the Pyramids of Giza, the Sphinx, the Valley Temple and the Papyrus Institute.
