They will provide a quick overview of your itinerary and offer insights into Egyptian customs and traditions.

Kick off an unforgettable journey through ancient Egypt, starting with a captivating tour of the Pyramids of Giza, the last remaining ancient wonder of the world. Marvel at the majestic pyramids of Cheops, Mykerinus, and Chephren, and delve into the history of these magnificent structures, shrouded in mystery.

From the Giza Plateau, soak in the breathtaking panorama of the pyramids rising majestically from the golden sands. Capture this unforgettable moment with photos to cherish forever. Before departing, pay homage to the awe-inspiring Great Sphinx, a timeless sentinel guarding the pyramids for over 3,000 years.

Next, prepare to be awe-struck by the Egyptian Museum. Here, you'll witness the splendor of ancient artifacts, including royal mummies and the astonishing treasures of King Tutankhamun. Your knowledgeable guide will lead you through the museum, illuminating its highlights.

Immerse yourself in the vibrant atmosphere of Khan El Khalili, a medieval marketplace brimming with treasures. From fragrant spices and gleaming gold to handcrafted souvenirs and everything in between, this bustling bazaar offers a sensory feast.

For those seeking the perfect souvenirs to commemorate your Egyptian adventure, Khan El Khalili is the ideal destination. After gathering your treasures, you'll be escorted to the train station to board the overnight train to Luxor.

As you drift off to sleep, the train glides seamlessly towards your next destination. Your journey includes delicious meals: breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

Later, you'll be heading to Luxor.

Upon arriving in Luxor, you'll be whisked away to your next home: a luxurious Nile cruise ship. Each cabin is comfortably appointed with a private bathroom, television, and air conditioning, ensuring a restful stay. Indulge in delicious meals served in the ship's restaurant, and take a refreshing dip in the swimming pool on deck.

After lunch, embark on a leisurely horse-drawn carriage ride to the awe-inspiring Karnak Temple. Step into the vastest ancient temple in Egypt and marvel at the vibrant engravings and hieroglyphs adorning its walls.

For over two millennia, approximately thirty Pharaohs contributed to this magnificent structure, resulting in its unparalleled size, intricate details, and diverse architectural styles.

Follow the Avenue of the Sphinxes to the Luxor Temple, arriving in the late afternoon. This is the perfect time to soak in the splendor of ancient architecture illuminated by the golden rays of the setting sun.

Enter the site and be greeted by the colossal pylon of Ramses II, his monumental statues, and the impressive obelisk. This is the very spot where the union of Mut and Amun and the rebirth of their son were celebrated annually during the Opet Festival.

Adding to the unique character of this site are a Roman chapel and a mosque, making it a fascinating blend of history and cultures.

Start an extraordinary journey to the West Bank of Luxor.

Begin by exploring the Valley of the Kings, a remarkable necropolis containing 63 tombs carved into the mountainside. Among these, the most renowned is the tomb of King Tut, whose iconic golden mask is displayed in the Egyptian Museum.

Delve into the secrets of three royal tombs, marveling at the vibrant murals that adorn their walls. These ancient paintings offer a glimpse into the beliefs and funerary practices of the Egyptians, showcasing the grandeur and power of the pharaohs.

Continue your exploration with a visit to the magnificent memorial temple of Hatshepsut. As you approach, the imposing cliffside will undoubtedly captivate your attention. However, the true wonder lies at the foot of this natural masterpiece.

The temple appears to have been meticulously carved into the rock itself. Once inside, you'll notice that many statues and engravings have been deliberately defaced. Your knowledgeable guide will unveil the intriguing history behind this act of vandalism.

Afterward, rejoin your cruise ship for a delectable lunch and embark on a relaxing sail along the Nile. Absorb the serenity of the river and soak in the breathtaking landscapes that only Africa can provide.

This unforgettable excursion includes breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

Highlights: Valley of the Kings (including entry to three royal tombs, but an additional ticket is required for King Tut's tomb) – Hatshepsut Temple.

Following a delicious breakfast on your cruise ship, embark on an excursion to Edfu, where you'll encounter the remarkably well-preserved Ptolemaic Temple dedicated to Horus, the vengeful son of Osiris.

Afterwards, set sail for Kom Ombo, home to the unique "double-temple" of Sobek. This temple, renowned for its symmetrical design, is dedicated to two deities: Sobek, the crocodile god, and Horus, the falcon-headed god. While the area once harbored numerous crocodiles, today the only ones you'll find are the mummified specimens showcased in the nearby Crocodile Museum.

Join your ship for a delightful lunch as you continue your journey towards Aswan.

This exciting itinerary includes breakfast, lunch, and dinner, along with visits to the impressive Horus Temple and the intriguing Sobek Temple.

Your journey to Abu Simbel begins at 4:00 AM with a scenic three-hour drive. The trip, while long, is well worth it to witness the grandeur of these ancient temples. Ramses II, seeking to assert his dominance over the Nubians, commissioned the construction of these two colossal temples for himself and his beloved Queen Nefertari.

Guided by an Egyptologist, you'll explore these architectural marvels, delving into the history of this site and the great Pharaoh who built them. There, you'll get the chance to capture some of the top memorable photographs.

Your tour includes breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and the highlight is a visit to Abu Simbel.

Begin your day at the Philae Temple, a remarkable site dedicated to the goddess Isis. It's truly astonishing that this entire temple was relocated from Philae Island to Agilika Island after the construction of the High Dam.

Travel by motorboat to the massive Aswan High Dam. While it has brought the benefits of consistent agriculture to Egypt, its construction has unfortunately impacted numerous homes and historic sites, including the iconic Abu Simbel temples.

Next, visit the Symposium Museum, an open-air museum showcasing contemporary sculptures. Although often overlooked by tourists, this museum offers a unique glimpse into modern Egyptian art and culture.

In the evening, board the sleeper train back to Cairo, your mind filled with countless stories and captivating photographs from your journey.
