Pharaohs Phollies

7 days, 6 nights

+- Overview

Each day is filled with historic wonders: visit one of the original seven wonders of the world – the great Pyramids of Giza.  Also a ‘must visit’ is the incredible Egyptian Museum of antiquities with its collection of the priceless treasures of Tutankhamen.  Visit 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!
