About Egypt

Egypt is situated in North Africa, with its coastline being bathed by the Mediterranean Sea to the north and the Red Sea to the east. The country is well-known for its world-famous monuments including the Great Sphinx and the Pyramids. The southern city of Luxor contains a vast amount of Egypt’s ancient sights, including the Karnak Temple and the Valley of the Kings. The capital city of Cairo, located on the banks and islands of the Nile River, is a fascinating mélange of old and new, with the western areas being marked by modern high rise buildings, while the eastern areas are punctuated by ancient mosques.

The Red Sea and the Sinai Peninsular regions of Egypt are particularly popular with tourists. Sinai is steeped in history and is the site of the frequently visited Mount Sinai and St Catherine’s Monastery. The Red Sea provides a stark contrast to the desert interior of Sinai with its beautiful coral reefs, rich in marine life. Sharm El Sheikh is one of the popular resorts on the southern tip of the Sinai Peninsular. This beautiful city boasts dramatic scenery, stunning beaches, luxury accommodation, handicraft stalls of the Bedouin culture, shopping centres, bars, restaurants and nightclubs. The resort also provides great opportunities for diving, snorkeling, horse riding, camel riding, golfing and going on safari.

Whether you enjoy water sports, a spot of retail therapy, or simply relaxing on a sun-drenched beach, Egypt certainly has a lot to offer. Start searching for your dream place in one of Africa’s property hotspots.
