About this trip
Eight days moving through Egypt's headline sights, from the pyramids at Giza to the temples of Luxor and Aswan, with a stop in Alexandria on the Mediterranean coast. This is a sightseeing-heavy itinerary built around the major monuments rather than downtime.
You'll cover ancient and more recent history in one go, from Karnak and the Valley of the Kings to the Bibliotheca Alexandrina and the newly opened GEM Museum. It suits travellers who want to see as much as possible in a single trip, including families and groups travelling together over Christmas and New Year.
