Asyut Travel Guide
Egypt
Asyut is an inland Egyptian city of 420,585 people in Upper Egypt, on the Nile. It is a practical base for exploring this part of the country rather than a coastal holiday destination.
Travellers arriving by air use Assiut Airport (ATZ), which serves the city. There are no notable named beaches within 40 kilometres, so beach trips are not a central part of an Asyut visit.
