Egypt is home to one of the world's oldest and most fascinating civilizations and the country boasts an impressive number of UNESCO World Heritage Sites. You can explore iconic ancient sites like the Great Pyramids of Giza, the Sphinx, Luxor's temples and tombs, and the Valley of the Kings. Other significant sites include the temples of Abu Simbel, the ancient city of Thebes, the historic Cairo Citadel, and the archaeological sites of Alexandria. These sites offer a chance to delve into Egypt's cultural heritage.

Cairo, the capital city of Egypt, is full of colorful sights, sounds, pleasant aromas of oils and wonderful historical sites. Alexandria is Egypt’s seaport city, where most ocean cruise ships dock, and where many historical sites are located, including the Catacombs of Kom el Shoqafa and Pompey's Pillar.

The Nile River, the longest river in the world, flows through Egypt. Cruising along the Nile allows you to witness the scenic beauty of the country and visit enchanting temples and villages located along its banks. It's a unique way to explore Egypt and immerse yourself in its cultural and historical treasures. I can guide you in selecting the most appropriate river cruise line for your journey down the Nile. AmaWaterways and Viking are both excellent options.

You can also cruise to Alexandria with some of these wonderful cruise lines; Azamara, Oceania, Regent Seven Seas, Seabourn and others. Most cruise lines will stay overnight in Alexandria to take a day or two trip to Cairo to see the Pyramids and the Great Sphinx.

Egypt offers a diverse range of landscapes, from the vast Sahara Desert to the stunning beaches of the Red Sea. You can go on desert safaris, ride camels, or take thrilling quad bike rides across the sand dunes. The Red Sea coast provides excellent opportunities for snorkeling, diving, and beach relaxation.
