This 12-day luxury journey combines the very best of Egypt in one seamless itinerary. Begin in Cairo with the Giza Pyramids, the Great Sphinx, and the treasures of the Grand Egyptian Museum, then wander the minarets and bazaars of Islamic and Coptic Cairo. Fly south to Luxor to board a deluxe Nile cruise ship for four nights, sailing past the temples of Karnak, the Valley of the Kings, Edfu, and Kom Ombo before reaching Aswan and the island sanctuary of Philae.
After the cruise, unwind for four nights on the shores of the Red Sea in Hurghada, with optional snorkeling, diving, and desert excursions before a final night back in Cairo. With private Egyptologist guides, domestic flights, a full-board Nile cruise, and 5-star hotels and resort throughout, this is the complete Egypt experience — ancient history, timeless river life, and coastal relaxation in a single unforgettable trip. An optional excursion to Abu Simbel lets you extend the adventure even further.

Cairo, Egypt's sprawling capital, is the gateway to the ancient world. Home to the Giza Pyramids—the last surviving Wonder of the Ancient World—and the Great Sphinx, it also boasts the Grand Egyptian Museum, which houses over 100,000 artifacts including the complete Tutankhamun collection. The city's Islamic heritage is showcased in the Citadel of Saladin and the Mohamed Ali Mosque, while Coptic Cairo reveals early Christian history through the Hanging Church and Ben Ezra Synagogue. Vibrant Khan El-Khalili Bazaar offers a sensory overload of spices, perfumes, and handcrafted souvenirs.
Luxor, ancient Thebes, is often called the world's greatest open-air museum. The East Bank houses the Karnak Temple Complex, the largest religious site ever built, with its iconic Hypostyle Hall of 134 columns, and the beautifully illuminated Luxor Temple. The West Bank conceals the Valley of the Kings, where over 60 New Kingdom pharaohs were buried, the stunning Mortuary Temple of Queen Hatshepsut, and the Colossi of Memnon. A four-night Nile cruise south from Luxor also calls at Edfu's Temple of Horus and the riverside double temple of Kom Ombo, letting travelers watch the Nile Valley's palm groves and villages drift by between sites.
Aswan, Egypt's southernmost city, offers a gentler, more relaxed pace along the Nile. The Aswan High Dam, an engineering marvel, created Lake Nasser. The Unfinished Obelisk reveals how ancient Egyptians carved colossal monuments from granite. Philae Temple, reached by motorboat, is a romantic island sanctuary dedicated to the goddess Isis. Optional excursions to Abu Simbel — the twin rock temples of Ramesses II and Nefertari — are available. A felucca sail on the Nile offers a timeless Nubian experience.
Hurghada sits on the western shore of the Red Sea, one of the world's premier destinations for snorkeling and diving thanks to its warm, clear waters and vibrant coral reefs. Boat excursions to Giftun Island and Orange Bay reveal calm lagoons and abundant marine life, while the surrounding Eastern Desert offers quad biking and Bedouin-style desert safaris. With its year-round sunshine and long sandy beaches, Hurghada is the perfect place to relax after days spent exploring temples and tombs.
