Egypt's allure predates recorded history. Visit the great cultural icons of Egypt and sail on the emerald waters of the Great Nile River. Marvel at antiquities in Cairo and Luxur, built on the 4,000 year old site of ancient Thebes. Cruise the Nile on a luxury river boat as you enjoy stunning views of desert sunsets over the water. Tread ancient paths on an optional extension to Jordan, where the archeological splendor of ancient Petra and the soothing waters of the Dead Sea await you.
