About this trip
A short, guided run through Egypt's two biggest historical draws: Cairo and Luxor. You cover the essentials without much downtime, moving from the pyramids straight down to the temples of the south.
In Cairo you take in the Giza Pyramids, the Sphinx, and the Egyptian Museum. Then it's on to Luxor, where qualified Egyptologists walk you through the Valley of the Kings and the great temple complexes on both banks of the Nile.
It's a compact itinerary aimed at people who want the headline sights covered properly and efficiently, rather than a slow-travel exploration of the region.
