ITINERARY INSPIRATION
From exploring the pyramids and Egypt’s ancient wonders to diving into the colourful waters of the Red Sea, our travel specialists will design an Egypt holiday itinerary that is entirely crafted to your passions.
THE ANCIENT LAND OF THE PHARAOHS
Whether you’re on a luxury riverboat cruise along the Nile, witnessing the iconic Egyptian pyramids first-hand or exploring the wondrous Valley of the Kings, the fabled land of the pharaohs has been a source of enduring fascination to travellers throughout the ages.
A luxury trip to Egypt will most likely include an accompanying Egyptologist tour guide who will help bring to life the iconic sites including the Great Pyramids of Giza, the enigmatic Sphinx and the newly opened Grand Egyptian Museum with more than 100,000 ancient artifacts.
From the great temples of Karnak and Luxor to the Unfinished Obelisk and the Temple of Isis standing on Agilkia Island in the middle of the river, a Nile cruise is the perfect way to see Egypt in all its timeless glory. If you are looking to see beyond the ancient wonders on your trip to Egypt, travel to the remote oases and startling landscapes of the Western Desert, dive into the wondrous marine life beneath the Red Sea or spend time walking around the energetic streets of Egypt’s capital city, Cairo.
From its spectacular archaeological remains to the dazzling treasures housed in its museums, a holiday to Egypt will help you unravel the astonishing legacy of one of the world’s oldest civilisations. Speak to one of our travel experts and they will help you design your luxury Egypt holiday in 2025 and 2026.
