Our standard tours use the First Class carriages on the ‘sitting train’ from; Cairo to Aswan, Cairo to Luxor, and Luxor to Cairo. These are comfortable reclining seats with plenty of space around them. If you wish, you can exchange this train for the European-style ‘wagon-lit’ sleeper train, where you get your own private cabin and berth. This option covers a one-way journey on the train and includes transfers and a light evening meal & breakfast on the train.

This full day tour starts with a fantastic panoramic view over Jerusalem from the Mount of Olives, before visiting the Church of All Nations and the Garden of Gethsemane. We then continue onto Bethlehem to the Church of Nativity, where Jesus was born. Returning to Jerusalem we visit the Western Wall, Judaism’s holiest site, and take a walk along the Via Delarosa to the Church of the Holy Sepulcher. This tour includes all transfers, an English speaking guide, entrance fees and lunch.

This trip runs early in the morning in Luxor, so that you catch the early morning sun over the Valleys of the Kings & Queens, temples and desert. The trip runs from between 5.00am and 10.00am (start times vary), with about 1 hour in the air. We normally book this for you on your second day in Luxor, before the West Bank tour. There is a minimum number of people required for the trips to run, and they are also weather dependent. It is very rare however that are cancelled, and if this happens, we will refund you in full.

Watch this spectacular laser light and sound show at the pyramids. Listen to the head of the Sphinx as it tells the story of the Pharaohs and how the great pyramids were built. The show is available in different languages and runs from early to late evening. All transport is provided along with entrance fees.

Introductory dives take approximately two and a half hours and begin with some basic training in the classroom. Then you are accompanied into 'confined water' to practice basic skills (mask clearing, equalising and regulator recovery). Finally, you go into 'open water' for a dive on the reef with an instructor by your side. The instructor will control your buoyancy the whole time as you descend to a maximum depth of 12m. Actual dive time underwater varies on an individual's air consumption but on average lasts 30-40 minutes. You do need to be able to swim for an Introductory Dive. All instruction, transport and equipment is included in the price. An Introductory dive is the perfect way to discover whether scuba is for you without committing yourself to the full course.
