Remember the wide-eyed wonder of learning about ancient Egypt at school? On this comprehensive Egypt tour and Nile cruise, we discover ancient Alexandria (location of one of the Seven Wonders of the World, the Lighthouse of Alexandria) and learn of the astonishing workmanship that created the Pyramids of Giza near Cairo. In Luxor, we explore the mind-blowing Valley of the Kings, where pharaohs lie entombed. We meander through the relaxed city of Aswan and visit its 111m High Dam, built to regulate river flooding. In between these unforgettable highlights, we enjoy a comfortable seven-night river cruise along the Nile.
