Get swept up in Egyptian legend as you venture to ancient temples, pyramids and golden tombs on this epic cultural odyssey through Egypt and the Nile. Over 19 days, become a student of past and present-day Egypt as you tour through Cairo, Siwa Oasis, Aswan, Luxor and more.

Surrender to the majesty of the Great Pyramid of Giza, the only survivor of the Seven Great Wonders of the Ancient World, and the mighty Sphinx in Cairo. After exploring Egypt's modern capital, embark on a Sahara desert safari to the mirage-like Siwa Oasis. By day, swim in Siwa’s turquoise salt-water lakes and Cleopatra’s Pool, a purported gift from Marc Anthony himself, and by night unwind under the stars in the comfort of a plush ecolodge. Continue to Alexandria, where you can admire a wealth of incredible antiquities including the Great Library of Alexandria, considered one of the most important modern archaeological sites in Egypt.

Next, fly to Aswan and embark on a panoramic cruise north along the Nile River to discover the mysterious temples in Kom Ombo and Edfu. Cruise in style, enjoying a Galabeya Party in traditional dress, plus an Egyptian folk dance performance while on board. In Luxor, transfer to the magnificent Temple of Horus and explore the royal tombs within the Valley of the Kings, known as the ‘Gateway to the Afterlife’. Once you’ve had your fill of ancient history, unwind for three nights at an all-inclusive resort in the Red Sea coastal town of Hurghada. Enjoy the crystal-clear waters and pristine beaches of this Red Sea paradise, or take up optional windsurfing, snorkelling or a boat trip to the untouched Giftun Islands nearby.

Teeming with treasures almost too good to be true, there’s no telling what else you’ll discover on this unmissable journey featuring return international flights, an internal flight in Egypt, a 3-night 4-star Nile River cruise, 13 nights 4-star hotel, resort & desert ecolodge, 31 meals including all meals while cruising and more.
