About this trip
Eight days in Egypt built around a honeymoon, moving between Cairo, Alexandria, and a Nile cruise from Aswan. The pace mixes city sightseeing with slower days on the water.
You start in Cairo and Alexandria, taking in the major ancient sites and markets, with a traditional Egyptian Zaffa wedding procession laid on as part of the experience. From there you head to Aswan for a 3-night, 4-day cruise along the Nile.
It's fully guided throughout, so someone else handles the logistics while you focus on the sights and each other.
