Starting in
Cairo we make a visit to the Gisa Plateaux to see the Great Pyramids and mysterious Sphinx. These awesome ancient monuments have withstood the tests of time, giving us a fascinating and unique glimpse into the past. Our tour finishes with a visit to the famous Egyptian museum with its vast collection of ancient artefacts, including the treasures of Tutenkhamun's tomb.
From Cairo we travel by train to
Luxor with its spectacular collection of temples and tombs. On the east bank or the Nile, we visit the colossal and well preserved Temples of Karnak and Luxor, while our tour of the west bank of the Nile explores the tombs of the Valleys of the Kings, Queen Hatchepsut and Medinat Habu temples, and the Colossi of Memnon.

Leaving the Nile Valley behind we head back to Cairo to explore the Citadel and the bazaar, before continuing on to the Sinai Peninsular and the laidback Red Sea beach resort of
Dahab. Here we have a couple of days to relax by the beach and enjoy the fantastic swimming and snorkelling available on and around some of the world’s best coral reefs. You can also climb
Mt. Sinai and visit St. Catherine's monastery.
Next we cross into Jordan for a jeep safari amid the stunning desert & mountain scenery of
Wadi Rum. The next highlight of the tour is a full tour and some free time in the world famous Nabatean city of
Petra. The tour ends with a drive up the
King's Highway to the crusader castle of
Kerak and a swim in the Dead Sea, before we finish in
Amman.
