About this trip
Twelve days that cover the classic Egypt route: ancient sites around Cairo and Luxor, a Nile cruise, and beach time in Hurghada to unwind afterwards. It's fully guided throughout, so someone else handles the logistics while you focus on the temples, tombs and history.
You start in Cairo with the Pyramids of Giza and the Egyptian Museum, then head south along the Nile, stopping at the great temple sites between Luxor and Aswan. The trip ends on the Red Sea coast at Hurghada, giving you a few days to swim and rest after a busy sightseeing stretch.
This is a group departure aimed at a broad range of travellers, including families, with the itinerary built around guided visits rather than free time to explore independently.
