'Feluccas and Pharaohs' is our number one Egypt family holiday and Egypt is our most popular destination. This trip is full of fun and discovery - sail on a felucca along the Nile, explore ancient monuments and snorkel over coral reefs. Starting in Cairo on this Egypt tour, visit the only remaining wonder of the ancient world, the magnificent Pyramids at Giza. Travel by overnight train to Aswan where there is time for a fun camel ride (additional charge) and dinner with a local Nubian family. Then board your felucca for a true highlight of the trip - watching the world pass you by as you sail along the Nile to Luxor. Discover the mighty Karnak Temple and the fascinating Valley of the Kings before journeying to the Red Sea for some well earned relaxation and the children will love snorkelling with all the colourful marine life. Finally, to end your Egypt family holiday, head back to Cairo for some last minute shopping in the bazaars before saying a sad farewell to Egypt.
