Summary
No other place on Earth evokes mystery and wanderlust like Egypt. And there's no better way to experience this ancient and fascinating country than on a cruise along the Nile.
Delve into a civilisation that began over 5,000 years ago, exploring mighty monuments, once-hidden tombs and temples dedicated to strange and enigmatic gods. Starting in the capital city, Cairo - a fascinating fusion of Western, Islamic and Christian cultures - we'll explore many of the famous landmarks including the newly opened Grand Egyptian Museum. Then board the Steigenberger Regency and relax as we navigate the majestic Nile River stopping at some of Egypt's most beloved sites. Sail to Edfu Temple, known for its rich cultural traditions, and witness gods immortalised in sandstone at Kom Ombo Temple and Abu Simbel. And carry on to Aswan - home to the High Dam and Philae Temple of Isis.
After time relaxing in Luxor, you'll head home with a head full of stories and mysteries from centuries past. This holiday is ideal for travellers with an interest in historic sites, classical history and culture, or a fascination with Egypt.
