Our suggestions for a Christmas you'll remember:

 

For those who just want to get away from it all...

...We suggest El Quseir, on Egypt's mainland Red Sea coast. El Quseir is a serene, relaxing resort featuring two luxurious hotels with great facilities and all inclusive options - the 5L Movenpick and the 5L Radisson BLU. The reefs in this area are in very good condition, making it a favourite for snorkellers and divers, and there's miles of sandy, quiet beaches to recline upon.

7nts half board from £905 at the 5L Radisson BLU departing 29 Dec

 

Christmas in Jerusalem  

For those wanting sun, sand & sightseeing

...The northern Sinai (ie Taba, Taba Heights and Nuweiba) is a great place to be located if you want to see the iconic sights of the region, including Petra, the Dead Sea, Jerusalem, St Catherine's Monastery and Mount Sinai. You can book these excursions in resort with our local representatives, or email them to pre-book.

7nts all inclusive from £670 at the 5L Hilton Taba departing 21 Dec

For those in search of serious sun...

...Well, it's good news all round! With both the Red Sea and Classical Egypt averaging a balmy 24 degrees celsius (approximate) and very low annual rainfall, you're virtually guaranteed a sunny Christmas. Meanwhile on Morocco's Atlantic coast, Agadir's not too far behind with an average daytime temperature of 21 degrees.

7nts bed & breakfast from £565 at the 5L Maritim Jolie Ville Royal Peninsula Sharm el Sheikh departing 19 Dec

 

For those looking for a family holiday...

...Try El Gouna, one of the family-friendliest resorts on the Red Sea! Abu Tig marina has a variety of restaurants and cafes ideal for families, and the gently shelving reef-free beaches of the resort are perfect for children (and bathers of all ages!).

7nts bed & breakfast from £845 at the 5L Movenpick Resort & Spa El Gouna departing 31 Dec

 

For those whose Christmas wouldn't be complete without a couple of tees...

...There's now 6 Red Sea destinations on offer that feature golf courses - and they're almost all open throughout the Christmas period. With well designed courses, stunning views and perfect golfing weather, your Christmas stocking runneth over when it comes to golf!

7nts half board from £565 at the 5L Marriott Resort Taba Heights departing 21 Dec

18 holes from £65 at Taba Heights golf course

For sightseers & culture vultures....

...Winter is probably the best time to visit destinations such as Luxor, Cairo, Petra and Amman if you want to see and do a lot. The weather is more amenable to walking, the sights are often not as crowded as peak summer dates and you won't have to avoid the treacherous midday sun! Tel Aviv on the other hand will much cooler, but with a plethora of galleries, museums and cultural events, you probably won't even notice...

7nts bed & breakfast from £515 at the 5L Sofitel Karnak Luxor departing 20 Dec

 

For those who want to party...

...Sharm el Sheikh is a given. The Red Sea's biggest, busiest resort is where all the action is, with lots of bars, nightclubs and nightlife options in and around Naama Bay and Soho Square, the new entertainment complex located by the Savoy. Hurghada also has plenty of nightlife options and a less hedonistic atmosphere than Shar- while it's not exactly off the beaten track, you're more likely to find an alternative clubbing scene here.

7nts all inclusive from £699 at the 4L Hilton Long Beach Hurghada departing 31 Dec

 

For those for whom Christmas means shopping...

...Eilat's VAT free status is heaven. Whether it's Christmas shopping for your nearest and dearest, taking advantage of the post-Christmas sales or just a bit of self indulgence, you're bound to find something to tempt you in Eilat's shopping malls and designer outlets. If you're after gifts of a more unusual nature, consider heading over to Marrakech, where traditional Moroccan carpets, metalwork and more abound in the medina - where haggling is definitely part of the Christmas spirit!

11nts half board from £1599 at the 5L Isrotel King Solomon Eilat departing 23 Dec
