A stunning holiday hotspot which has year-round sunshine also has the cheapest beers and it's just hours from the UK. The enviable and dramatic destination of Egypt should be top of your travel list and has history and culture by the bucket-load. There is almost to much to see in the Middle Eastern country which is best known for its pyramids and sphinxes in Giza, Cairo. But the country is also known for its ancient mummies or pharaohs including the most famous of all King Tutankhamen.
But if its sand you are seeking, the country is known for its deserts - but also for beach resorts in the Red Sea which are a popular alternative form Spain or even the Canary Islands which is still hitting high temperatures of 25C plus. Destinations such as Sharm el Sheikh or Hurghada are hugely popular with Brits if travelling to the country. And a list of alcohol prices, also compiled by Travel Supermarket, puts Egypt top of the charts for the cheapest bottle of beer at just £1.43 a bottle at a beach bar.
Travel supermarket estimates seven nights in Egypt with drinks included comes out at around £560. This was calculated on costs between Sep 2023 and Aug 2024 for self-catering holidays. But a trip to Cairo is up there with a bucket list of trips. And a visit to the Pyramids or Valley of the Kings is essential if you plan a trip to the capital Cairo. For most people it is an incredibly memorable experience. A review on Trip Advisor summed up their visit saying: "The feeling of history here is amazing. It's one thing to see this place on the internet and TV, but to be here stood in front of the pyramids is surreal. It's very hot as would be expected and the most important thing is to go with a licenced and reputable guide.
