The battle of the titans has ensued with the two top holidays going at it. Egypt and the Caribbean are the two most popular holiday destinations in the world. 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. Saying that, With some of the most pleasant countries in the world like Barbados or St Lucia, the Caribbean receives many visitors every day. Although they may look the same, each of these islands feel completely different. Cuba almost looks as though it is frozen in time, stuck in the 50′s and struggling to get out, Barbados is quite modern. If you go to St Lucia or have ever been, you will know that it is becoming a spa holiday island, just somewhere for you to get pampered.
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.
But why egypt? 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 may have a very extensive and long history, but that’s not the only thing that draws people to it, another reason is the many different activities awaiting any tourist. Everywhere you go there is something interesting to see. 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.
