Answer 2

since i'm Egyptian , let me be honest with you , i'll give it all to you , then YOU decide to go or not .

Egypt is a great place for many things :

1- If you are looking for an orintal place to go , egypt cant be less than India , Khan el Khaleeli in Cairo , the aincent Musqous , it's all great and different .

2- For the aincent and monuments , Egypt has quarter the monuments of the whole world , specially in luxor alone which holds 1/4 of monuments and tempels of the world , you can walk in a complete aincent city , all built before roman empire exicts , also the only left wonder from the seven wonders of the world : the pyramids .

3- as for a honeymoon , the best place to go to in Egypt is Sharm el shiekh specially if you are interested in diving , there are incredible places to dive in , dosens of 5 stars hotels , torists are more than egyptians there , also Sharm is well known by safari tribs in the desert , all water sports , everything ...

4- at last Egypt is sunny , the view of the nile is great ( the world longest river) , it is very cheap (e.g : bigmac combo = 2.5 US dollars) , by the way in Egypt most you can find most fast food chains ( macdonalds , KFC , Pizzahut , Dominos pizza , Hardies , Hard rock caffee(in cairo only) and many more ) in cairo also there are night spots ..etc. ) also most people are friendly ( not buyers who are conning , and beggers )

those were the merits, now let me tell you the bad things , But a very important thing i wanna say before telling you that , TERRORISM is NOT one of the bad things in visiting Egypt , an accident happens maybe once every several years , and it is happening in the whole world , if you are afraid from this it willbe , and i'm honest with you , like someone don't take airoplanes because he fears the crashes happened , terrorist is NOT a daily thing in Egypt , it's something strange to egypt , so dont give any attention to that .

The bad things about going to Egypt :

1- it's not a first world country , so cairo for example (the capital) is not clean like USA and Europe , traffic is not easy and good like them ,

2- a lot of poor people are living there ( except in the hotels of course ) so they wont look good to make you feel you are in a happy place , and in the touristic places many beggers , the buyers try to sold you what is by one dollar by 20 dollars (becuase you look like a tourist) (you have to bargin then , and even with bargaining you wont get it the right price)

3- the main problem is about custom, you won't viel of course but in cairo , if you walk without a group , you better dress a bit conservative , if not you wont be in danger , but everybody will stare at you like you are an alien ( but in sharm el sheik or Luxor dress as you like because as i told you it's full of torists and people used to their clothes

4- also about custom , Egypt is not the right place for kissing in puplic , even in Sharm ... maybe sharm is ok but not a long french kiss , it wont be acceptable , becuase it still an islamic country after all , so be aware that sex is at your room only , it's not acceptable to do it in puplic , even to kiss , but all other fun is ok , but not kissing or any kind of sex in puplic . you have to respect such customs .

well that was all of it , and i was very honest with you . now You decide , to go or not !

Answer 3

i love egypt, so i think it's really romantic to spend your honeymoon in the land of cleopatra and whatnots....but the recent bombings at tourist spots in egypt is a bit of a concern. moreover it can be scorching there! unless you're coming from a really cold and dominantly wintery place, don't go there. beaches are the safest bet: try thailand, maldives, bahamas, fiji...if the beach scene isn't your fancy, there's always paris ;-)

Answer 4

What an awesome place to go! It is beautiful, educational and romantic all at the same time. Experience a totally different culture and see the cool things the country has to offer! Have fun with wherever you decide!

Answer 5

For a visit, but I'd choose something on the Northern side of the Mediterranean

Answer 6

Sure; if you don't mind tour buses, hotels and coffee shops blowing up, possibly while your in them. You might as well consider a cheap holiday in Lebenon. I'd recomend Iraq, but all the good hotels have already been boomed.

Answer 7

of course not. Venice(Italy) and Paris(France) are the right places for honeymoon.

Answer 8

Dangerous I would have thought. Go to the Maldives or the Caribbean.

Answer 9

Egypt is a beautiful place,actually,Africa is a wonderful place.while you are there,dont forget KENYA.

Answer 10
