The country borders Palestine, Israel, Libya and Sudan. Egypt has a coastline of about 2,450 km from the Mediterranean and the Red Sea. It is primarily at the coast and the Red Sea and the cities of Luxor and Cairo that its visitors keep to. Along the coast, you can snorkel in the warm climate and explore cities with fascinating historical and cultural experiences.
