EGYPT - THE NILE VALLEY

Welcome to Egypt!

Mythical land of the Pharaohs and pyramids, cradle of gods, Egypt is a powerful time machine, transporting us back 6,000 years to the very dawn of civilization.

Modern Egypt has successfully capitalized on this rich archaeological heritage for tourism, and visiting the pyramids of the Giza Plateau or taking a cruise along the Nile have become must-do experiences.

In this report, we offer you a journey along the Nile, from Luxor to the Sudanese border, into the heart of Nubian lands.

No pyramids this time, but several equally famous sites such as Karnak, the Valley of the Kings, Aswan, Abu Simbel, and more.
