Intrepid Travel
Revel in a taste of Egypt's history, beauty and colour on this short but action-packed trip along the longest river in the world. Cruise the Nile on a felucca, discover the largest and most impressive Pharaonic temples, chat with interesting locals and live it up a little in this country of deserts, bazaars, monuments and good old-fashioned adventures.
Itinerary:
Welcome to a city like no other. Throw yourself into Cairo's chaos, colour and culture with a trip to Khan al-Khalili, Egypt's most famous bazaar. For a change of pace, climb aboard a camel and visit the impressive Sphinx and Pyramids of Giza for those iconic sand-hued vistas. Take time to visit the fascinating Egyptian Museum, home to more than 120,000 antiquities and relics. Wander past the priceless treasures in the huge maze of rooms.
Experience a slice of Nile culture first hand, with a boat trip and dinner with a Nubian family. There is also time for an optional day trip to the gateway to ancient Egypt, the remote temples of Abu Simbel. Later, set sail down the Nile on a magical overnight felucca journey, sleeping on deck under the starry sky.
Known as Thebes to the ancient Egyptians, Luxor conceals amazing treasures. Take a donkey ride to the Valley of the Kings and visit three of the best-preserved Pharaonic tombs. Once known as the Place of Truth, the Valley of the Kings holds more than 60 burial chambers. Enjoy some tasty traditional home cooking for lunch and wander through the spectacular temples of Karnak.
An early-morning return to Egypt's pulsating heart heralds the end of this Egyptian adventure. For those with extra time, be sure to roam through the walled citadel for wonderful views over the busy streets, pick up some exotic trinkets at one of the many markets or escape the hazy chaos of the inner city with a final promenade along the banks of the Nile.
