My girl and I really got into scuba diving during the 2 weeks that we stayed in Hurghada, the incentive was just so great. There is so much to see under the sea here i'm not sure i'll ever be able to go swimming off the shores of the UK again!!

I adore souks and these are pretty spectacular as they go! So much to see and smell (not all great admittedly) it's just a fascinating melting pot.

So exciting to be there! There's so much history, both real and from films, that's associated with the place, and we spent the best part of a couple of days roaming about and exploring it (sleeping in our hotel though!!). Lovely place and so many great photo ops!

Yes it's clicheed and touristy, and yes it was a lot of fun. We took a horse-drawn carriage ride from outside the medina, around the walls and to some gardens too, with beautiful things to see everywhere.

It's amazing to walk around this market thinking it's been pretty similar since the middle ages. The smells and sights are infectious and you'll want to wander for hours so leave plenty of time for your visit!
