Trivia buffs should be well familiar with the Nile, as it is perhaps the most record breaking body of water on the planet. This makes a Egypt Nile cruise and stay the perfect holiday for anyone that appreciates the very best the world has to offer – both in terms of the Nile itself, and its truly unique cultural and physical surrounds.
The most familiar fact about the Nile is that it is the longest river in the world – this is no mean feat and when we consider how long the Amazon is. However, when we consider that the Nile winds its way through several African countries – from Ethiopia to The Sudan, then it is easy to see why.
The fact that the Nile is the longest river on the planet is only one reason why the Nile can be considered truly special, and by choosing a Nile cruise and stay you will be holidaying in a location that has a diversity of qualities – and serves a range of terrains.
For example, on a Nile river cruise you will encounter a real diversity of wildlife – everything from Ibises to water buffalo – which makes it a great location for anyone who appreciates the natural world. However, in places it is also a distinctly modern place and the Aswan High Dam is well worth visiting if you want to see the best that modern engineering has to offer alongside ancient history.
