Last minute holidays to Egypt

Year-round sunshine means Egypt last-minute holidays are perfect whenever you need a break from the winter blues. Even during January, which is the coldest month back home, Egypt basks in warm temperatures of 18°C, while during July and August the thermometer soars to 34°C. So, whatever time of year you choose, you'll be able to enjoy blue skies and a spot of alfresco dining to get you in that holiday groove.

Budget-busting holidays mean you've got plenty of spare cash to spend on excursions too, so visiting out of season is ideal. When you book great value holidays to Egypt you can look forward to a week or two of pure indulgence, or spend some time exploring ancient Egyptian culture. If you choose a resort in Hurghada or Sharm El Sheikh you can still take a day trip to the Pyramids and uncover the secrets of the Sphinx, or head to Luxor to marvel at the Valley of the Kings.

If you're looking for late deals to Egypt for the family then you might prefer to stay near one of Egypt's fabulous waterparks. Most hotels in Sharm El Sheikh are within easy reach of some of the best waterparks the country has to offer. Some even have their own, but for marvellous memories and perfect pictures, head to Aqua Blu to enjoy 45 kid's slides and 17 just for adults. Combine that with a lazy river and a wave pool and you have the perfect splash-filled base.

All the money you've saved finding the best holiday deal can be put to good use in one of Egypt's modern shopping malls. Senzo Mall near Hurghada is one of the largest, and is packed with fashion and homewares. For a more authentic experience, head to one of the markets where you can enjoy mingling with the locals and trying your hand at haggling. Whether your ideal holiday is exploring the ancient world, hunting down bargains, adventuring under the sea, or just taking time out to laze under clear blue skies, cheap deals to Egypt hit the spot every time.
