This unforgettable 9 day tour package to Egypt offers the perfect balance between discovery and relaxation, combining the top highlights of Cairo with a magnificent multi-day Nile Cruise through Upper Egypt’s most iconic ancient sites.
Your trip begins in the heart of Egypt—Cairo, where ancient wonders meet modern life. You’ll explore the awe-inspiring Giza Pyramids, one of the last remaining Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. Stand face-to-face with the Great Sphinx, then dive into the treasures of the Grand Egyptian Museum, home to Egypt’s most famous artifacts, including the golden treasures of King Tutankhamun. This new museum, located near the pyramids, is the largest archaeological museum in the world and a must-see on any Egypt tour.
While in Cairo, you’ll also stroll through the colorful streets of Khan El Khalili Bazaar, enjoy the architectural beauty of the Citadel of Saladin, and soak in the spiritual history of Islamic and Coptic Cairo. Every moment in the capital is a fusion of ancient and contemporary Egypt, offering experiences both educational and enriching.
After discovering the highlights of Cairo, your adventure continues with a relaxing and scenic Nile Cruise from Aswan to Luxor. As you sail along the legendary Nile River, you'll visit some of Egypt’s most breathtaking ancient temples. In Aswan, discover the elegant Temple of Philae, dedicated to the goddess Isis, and marvel at the engineering feat of the High Dam. Stop at Kom Ombo, a unique double temple, and Edfu, one of the best-preserved temples in Egypt devoted to the falcon god Horus.
The journey continues to Luxor, often referred to as the world’s greatest open-air museum. Here, you'll explore the Valley of the Kings, where the tombs of pharaohs are carved into the desert hills, including the famous tomb of King Tutankhamun. You’ll also visit the grand Karnak Temple Complex and the majestic Luxor Temple, both rich in hieroglyphs, obelisks, and ancient stories.
