Itinerary

Day 1Welcome to Cairo

Welcome to Egypt! Upon arrival in Cairo you will be transferred to your hotel to spend your first night in egypt before having the chance to enjoy the best egypt tours.

Day 2pyramids & saqqara

Cairo – Aswan. Today visit to the legendary pyramids and iconic Sphinx at the Giza Plateau. Sole survivors from the ancient Greek-listed Seven Wonders of the World, the pyramids are the planet’s oldest tourist attraction. Gaze in awe at Cheops (Khufu) – the largest of the three great pyramids. Constructed from over 2.5 million limestone blocks it is thought to have taken more than 20 years to construct. Continuing to Saqqara, we can explore the myriad tombs and temples at this site and see Zhoser’s step pyramid – constructed by Imhotep, the pharaoh’s chief architect in 2700 BC. Later there will be a chance to have dinner before boarding our overnight sleeper train to Aswan.

Day 3Philae temple

Aswan – Abu Simbel. Upon arrival in Aswan we transfer to our hotel for check-in. This afternoon’s highlight is a leisurely boat trip to picturesque Agilika Island where we enjoy a guided tour of Philae Temple – dedicated to the goddess Isis. As the sun sets, there is free time to shop in the colourful souqs and markets or simply relax and watch an amazing sunset in Egypt’s southern most town.

Day 4 SUN FESTIVAL - TEMPLE OF KING RAMSES II, ABU SIMBEL

Today is 22 October or February . Abu Simbel – Aswan – Nile Cruise Sailing. Possibly the most awe-inspiring temple in all ancient Egypt, the great Sun Temple of King Ramses II at Abu Simbel was constructed between 1290 and 1224 BC to revere the mighty pharaonic ruler himself. Ramses the Bold, Ramses the Great, Ramses the Narcissist are perhaps all apt titles for one of ancient Egypt’s most powerful rulers.
