Why This Trip Stands Out

A luxury Egypt journey pairing the country’s most important ancient sites with upscale hotels, expert guiding and four nights cruising the Nile.

  • Great Pyramids of Giza and the Sphinx.
  • Valley of the Kings with access to Tutankhamun’s tomb.
  • Four-night Nile cruise with guided shore excursions.
  • Temple visits in Luxor, Edfu, Kom Ombo, Philae and Abu Simbel.
  • Premium Cairo hotels and included on-tour flights.
