Egypt
Join us on our Egypt Tour (4 days/3 nights).
Egypt, the gift of the Nile, is the home of the famous and awe inspiring Pyramids of Giza. Start your tour in Cairo, the nation’s capital, with its great 4000 year history, street bazaars, and an amazing food selection. Visit the Pyramids, built using incredibly large blocks of stone, with phenomenal mathematical accuracy, one last remaining survivor of the seven ancient wonders.
Check out the large limestone carving of the Sphinx of Giza (a large half-lion, half-human statue).
Relax and unwind by boat, or cruising the iconic Nile River.
More details can be found in the day-to-day itinerary below.
