Nile Antiquities
6 days, 5 nights
No other river in the world holds our imagination as much as the majestic Nile that flows from the heart of Africa to empty into the Mediterranean. As it winds northward through the continent, slipping between the great deserts of Egypt, it becomes the road along which you will travel into the past to discover the glorious dynasty of the Pharoahs. On this 6-day odyssey you will see the greatest architectural feats created by a nation of people whose legacy stands in triumph more than 5,000 years on. Your expert guides bring to life the time of the Pharaohs as they explain the complex symbols of their ancient gods and the temples that they built to worship them.
From the comfort of your Nile cruise ship watch the small towns and villages slip past your window, seeing life little changed over the millennia. Life on board is full of delights as you dine on international and local cuisine, relax in the sun on deck, cool off in the ship’s plunge pool and in the evening enjoy many forms of entertainment.
Each day is filled with historic wonders: from the great Dams at Aswan and the granite quarries to the many temples such as Philae, Kom Ombo, and Edfu. In Luxor and Karnak the sheer scale of the buildings is overwhelming and in the Valleys of the Kings and Queens, the silence of the desert emphasizes the reverence of these burial sites hidden deep within the ground and filled with glorious treasure. The Nile – it awaits you!
