The Treasure of Egypt Cairo

Egypt's Treasure Uncovered on the enthralling 8-day journey which includes not only the highlights of Cairo but also the peacefulness offered by a Nile Cruise.

The first leg of the journey takes you to Cairo, whose main attractions are the Great Pyramids of Giza and the Sphinx, the only surviving wonder among the seven wonders of the ancient world. In order to appreciate the spectacular heritage of Egypt, the local papyrus making institutes and handicrafts workshops will open their doors to you as well.

After that, you will hop on a plane to Aswan, which is the access point to the Nile. You will be given a relaxing day at the very beginning of your luxurious Nile Cruise, and then you will start sailing through the middle of the ancient Egyptian empire. The places to be visited include the High Dam, the Unfinished Obelisk, and the temples of Kom Ombo and Edfu, all of which are reminders of the splendor of the pharaohs.

Next stop is Luxor, the city of the living where the majestic Karnak Temple, the royal tombs of the Valley of the Kings, and the impressive Temple of Queen Hatshepsut are ear-marks of the eternal past that is still alive.

This incredible trip includes in its agenda history, culture, and peace — the perfect Egyptian experience for those who want to explore but also relax.
