Egypt - New discoveries

After what most people involved in Egypt tourism would describe as a very bad year so far its great to see a story involving new discoveries which showcase Egypt positively. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-13522957

Egypt's Lost Cities which goes out on Monday the 30th May on BBC 1 at 2030 follows an American archaeologist as she excavates sites discovered through the use of satellite infra red imagery.

The findings include at least 2 new suspected pyramids and over 1000 tombs which eventually could lead to new tourist sites.

May and June Egypt Bargains

There are some great bargains to be had for both Nile Cruises and Luxor stay Holidays over the next couple of months due to the low flight rates that are currently available.

The Luxurious Ms Farah is available from £699.00 per person with free deck upgrades and the choice of private sightseeing on selected May and June departures which is a crazy price for a boat that is only 9 months old.

The RA II is also available from £569.00 which as anyone who has travelled on her before knows is a great offer and this includes sightseeing and all transfers

7 nights bed and breakfast at the Sofitel Karnak is available from just £329.00 pp and a week at the Sonesta St George in a side Nile view room from just £359.00 pp. You can then book some of our very well priced half and full day tours to enjoy the treasures of Luxor for a brilliant and cheap holiday.

Both hotels offer excellent value for money for a leisurely break
