Honeymoon
My fiancé and I are planning to come to Egypt for our honeymoon in May 20 2013. We both are active and love history but i also want it to be romantic and nice. I was wondering if you can lead me to a place that would be perfect for a honeymoon but also has a lot of activities we can do.
Thank you

if you are looking forward to see lots of history & sun and spend your honeymoon on the lovely romantic Nile then you have to go to Luxor or Aswan but i recommend Luxor
if you are interesting in sun ,beach ,dance ,disco,etc then you have to go to sharm el shaikh
i been in all Luxor , sharm and AswanÂ
i wish you happy h moon and i wish you luck xxxxxx

I have looked at Sharm El Sheikh and it seemed it only has beaches and you would go swimming all the time:)....and I'm not a swimmer.
ive been to luxor a few times and i love it also but you need a few days see see everything. it has the valley of the kings(and queens) and karnak. also can take trips from luxor to a few scattered temples like esna and temple of hathor. its amazing. really egypt is a great country i havent even seen all the temple and pyramids in egypt yet. lol
you should do some searches on any interests in egypt and im sure u will find many sites about it and to book online.

I Agree ...for Romantic walk on calm beach goto Sharm and if you got interest in history go nearby places not so far like Saint Catherine and mosses peak ( Mount Sinai)This is actually what I did for my honeymoon as I was looking for both too

You are definitely mistaken
Sharm El Sheikh is NOT only beaches
Sharm El Sheikh has the best night life in Egypt. You can stay up all night bar/cafe/club hopping. You can dine in tens of places.
You can go for desert safari with Quad ATVs or Jeeps
You can go on a full day boat cruise to Ras Mohamed or Tiran island
You can go to the desert Bedouin dinner and show .... Very cultural
You can climb Saint Catherine mountain, visit the historical monastery ..... Climb Mount Moses, this is where Moses spoke to God.
You can go to the nearby Dahab for a sense of traditional Egypt.
You can take walks on the Naama bay beach strip, full of life all day and night.
And lots even more
Hurghada doesn't stand a chance to Sharm El Sheikh

Rural Sinai is one thing, Sharm El Sheikh is another (safety wise)
