Felucca Adventure
Egypt | Tour ref: FE
Sphinx, Pyramids & Aswan
In Cairo you head first to the Egyptian Museum which houses what is possibly the richest collection of artefacts in the world including Tutankhamun’s famous golden mask. Next you take an unforgettable visit to the legendary Pyramids at Giza and see the enigmatic Sphinx. An overnight train whisks you south to Aswan, gateway to Africa and crossroads of civilizations. Here the pace is slower - you can relax or ride camels to a desert monastery (optional!) or simply walk the streets and visit the bazaar to experience the hustle and bustle of this city.
Sailing Down the Nile
The traditional lateen-rigged boat of the Nile takes you slowly down the river. Sleeping on board under star-filled skies, you head towards Luxor - capital of the Pharaohs. The wondrous temples and relics that dot the landscape here are a potent reminder of the magnificence of Egypt’s past. You’ll ride donkeys through spectacular desert hills into the Valley of the Kings to explore some of the famous tombs. Finally, you’ll see the wonders of Karnak Temple, built to honour the Gods of ancient Egypt, and a glorious collection of obelisks, pylons and statues.
Responsible Travel
We have joined forces with the Sunshine International Project, which provides education and a home for children in Egypt. You can visit the home during your stay in Luxor.
