It’s all about immersing yourself in local culture onboard the adults-only TUI Bahareya, and that starts with the décor – think Arabic-inspired style with a modern twist. There are Egyptologists onboard who can fill you in on the local area, as well, and share the stories behind the sights. The ship’s All Inclusive as standard, so all your food and drink at the two restaurants and two bars is part of the package, including lunchtime snacks with a local flavour and Egyptian dishes from the top deck eatery in the evenings . Speaking of the top deck, you’ll find a pool, a bar, and plenty of space to relax up here, too. Back inside, meanwhile, the main lounge plays host to nightly entertainment.

The main restaurant – Belhana – is open daily for breakfast, lunch and dinner. It’s a buffet set-up for breakfast and lunch here, with show-cooking stations and a mix of international and local dishes, then dinner’s an à la carte affair. You can also grab light bites at lunchtime from Sofra on the top deck. Al fresco dining is available in the evenings here, too, and there’s a focus on local dishes. You’ll need to book a table in advance, but it’ll still be part of your All Inclusive package.
