About this trip
A two-week private tour taking in both Egypt and Jordan, built around historical sightseeing and a stretch of life on the Nile.
Licensed guides lead you through the sights in both countries, and a stint on a Nile cruise ship gives you a comfortable, full-board base for part of the trip.
It's a private, family-friendly departure, with dates over Christmas and New Year, so you move at your own group's pace rather than falling in with strangers.

Worth it if you value outstanding sites and knowledgeable guides. Think twice if you expect luxury accommodation or want to avoid long bus days.
- Jordan leg particularly strong value: three days, multiple major sites, meals and beds included, under USD 660 per person.
- Guides consistently praised as knowledgeable, personable and excellent English speakers; airport pickups efficient and reliable.
- Nile cruise ship requires upgrading; accommodation ranges from good to mediocre depending on hotel, not Western luxury standard.
- Budget extra for Jordan visa and exit fees not included in advertised price; some hotel food inconsistent.
