Egypt Adventure

Itinerary

Days 1-2 Cairo

Welcome to a city like no other. Take a trip to enjoy the madness of Khan al-Khalili, Egypt's most famous bazaar. Visit the impressive Sphinx and Pyramids of Giza for those iconic sand-hued vistas. The fascinating Egyptian Museum is home to more than 120,000 antiquities and relics. Wander past the priceless treasures in the huge maze of rooms.

Days 3-5 Aswan/Nile Felucca

Visit a Nubian village for an unforgettable insight into the culture and cuisine of the local people. There is also an optional day trip to the remote ancient temples of Abu Simbel. Later, set sail down the Nile on a magical overnight felucca journey, sleeping on deck under the starry sky.

Days 6-7 Luxor

Known as Thebes to the ancient Egyptians, Luxor is home to amazing treasures. Once known as the Place of Truth, the Valley of the Kings holds more than 60 burial chambers. Take a donkey ride to the valley and visit three of the well-preserved pharaonic tombs. Enjoy a traditional local lunch back in town then wander through the spectacular temples of Karnak.

Day 8 Cairo

An early-morning return to Egypt's pulsating heart heralds the end of this Egyptian adventure. For those with extra time, roam through the walled citadel for wonderful views over the city, pick up some exotic trinkets at one of the many markets or escape the hazy chaos of the inner city with a farewell promenade along the banks of the Nile.
