- Sailing on the Amirat II Dahabiyya: A centerpiece of the journey, this cruise offers a traditional and intimate sailing experience from Aswan to Luxor. Travelers enjoy multi-day exploration with stops at the temples of Kom Ombo and Edfu, complemented by onboard meals, afternoon tea, and cultural entertainment such as a Nubian show and Whirling Dervishes.
- The Temples of Abu Simbel: A flight south from Aswan leads to these massive rock-cut temples built by King Ramses II. The site features two awe-inspiring structures dedicated to the Pharaoh and Queen Nefertari, which were famously relocated to save them from the rising waters of Lake Nasser.
- The Sphinx and NMEC Museum: An in-depth look at the enigmatic Sphinx is followed by a visit to the National Museum of Egyptian Civilization (NMEC). This museum provides a comprehensive view of Egyptian heritage from prehistory to the modern era, using a unique thematic approach to share the country’s “tangible and intangible” history.
- The Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM): A visit to Egypt’s newest landmark near the Giza Pyramids, which showcases over 50,000 masterpieces, including the complete Tutankhamun collection. The museum features a vast atrium, a Grand Staircase lined with royal statues, and state-of-the-art galleries.
- Valley of the Kings & Rare Tomb Access: A comprehensive tour of the Theban Necropolis including the Valley of the Kings and the Temple of Hatshepsut. This highlight includes special visits to the tombs of King Tutankhamun, Seti I, Neferhotep, and Ramses VI.
