Egypt

Along the fertile banks of the River Nile, the ancient Egyptians established a significant and enduring civilisation whose achievements have captured the imagination of the world ever since.

Today, the River Nile remains the country’s lifeblood and welcomes you with magnificent monuments, mesmeric desert and lush delta. 

Within this northward flowing stretch of the Nile is the world’s most intense concentration of ancient temples, hidden tombs and luxurious palaces constructed over the span of 4,000 years.  

Springtime is a pleasant time to visit Egypt. Visit the Pyramids at Giza, the Valley of the Kings in Luxor, where Howard Carter discovered King Tutankhamun’s tomb or the mighty Aswan High Dam, where twenty monuments from Egyptian Nubia and four from the Sudan were carefully dismantled then reassembled at safe distances from their original sites. 

The largest involved The Great Temple of Abu Simbel, or take a treck into the desert to find traces of Roman trading outposts. 

Egypt OFFERS so much MORE THAN JUST pyramids!
