The battle of the titans has ensued with the two top holidays going at it. By quite a long way, holidays to Egypt and the Caribbean are the most sought after and by far the most popular. Egypt is more than capable to hold against all of the Caribbean islands.
Cuba holidays have really taken off in the last 10 years, boosting the overall tourism industry in the Caribbean to massive amounts. Tourists flock to the Caribbean, mainly for it’s weather and quite simply it’s very beautiful islands, they are truly stunning. From one to the other, it is easy to think that you are in a completely different part of the world, that’s how different each island is. There is much diversity in the Caribbean, the islands are all completely different. The St Lucia island is ever growing, the lush forests, and the fantastic spa therapies.
So does this really give the Caribbean an unfair advantage when holiday bookings come into it? Well look at it this way, every month around 130,000 people search for Egypt holidays just in the UK. Thats a phenomenal number, and although it is less than all of the Caribbean island searches, the number of searches for Egypt outweighs that of any other single country, at the moment.
So why is Egypt so high on the list of tourists? Well when you consider it, Egypt has a lot more to offer than many other countries around the world. With such a diverse and extensive history dating back over 7000 years and most documented, this makes Egypt very unique. Egypt also has a massive range of activities for any tourist, ranging from bird watching to shark diving off the coast of Sharm El Sheikh. It won’t really matter which way you go here, no matter where you turn you will find something interesting. Not to mention that the weather is fantastic, if anything it is hotter than the Caribbean as well.
So there you have it, two of the holiday destination kings.
