You begin your tour in Cairo, with a visit the Gisa Plateau site of one of the seven wonders of the ancient world, the Pyramids and Sphinx. We then take you to Saqqara where Zozer’s Step Pyramid dominates the skyline. There is plenty of time to explore the city and its many fascinating sites including museums, monuments, bazaars and mosques, and not forgetting the majestic Nile itself.

 

From here you will travel to the coast and the charming resort of Dahab. Famed for its golden sands, this picturesque Bedouin village it will be your base for the next few days. We give you plenty of time to snorkel the abundant coral reefs that lie just below the crystal blue waters of the Red Sea and a sunset camel ride makes a memorable end to the day. Then you will take a jeep safari to the beautiful Coloured Canyon and lush green, palm filled Khudra Oasis before walking through the strange rock formations of the White Canyon.

You also have a chance to try some scuba-diving and climb Mt. Sinai and visit St. Catherine's monastery while you are in Dahab.

 

Finally you say goodbye to Dahab and return to Cairo, where you have time for some last minute shopping before your tour ends.
