With the Great Pyramids of Giza, ancient temples, magnificent monuments, and the Egyptian Antiquities Museum, Cairo offers an experience of a lifetime.
The Great Pyramid of Giza is one of the seven wonders of the ancient world and the only one still remaining to this day. An absolute must see.
This beautiful temple complex is one of the most picturesque in all of Egypt. It sits on Aglika Island just south of the old Aswan Dam.
A top travel destination in Egypt with a wealth of historic monuments and buildings bringing Egypt’s fabled past to life. Luxor is called the world’s greatest open air museum.
Sunniest city of Egypt and a popular touristic stop for many cruises. The local market here is an excellent place to do some shopping and the best place to find Egyptian fresh spices.
Edfu has the most complete and best-preserved temple in Egypt, the Ptolemaic Temple of Horus, which was constructed between 237 BC and 57 BC
Kom Ombo means ‘hill of the gold’ crowned with Temple of Komombo. The temple is unusual as one side is dedicated to the god Haroesis and the other side to Sobek.
The 42m long obelisk was left unfinished when some cracks appeared, but had this obelisk been completed, it would have been the heaviest, weighing nearly 1100 tons!
The symbol of the New Era after the Revolution of 1952, the dam provided Egypt with water and electricity and protected huge areas against flooding.

Had a fantastic trip! The sights and different experiences were great. I loved having the opportunity to do things such as the Nubian dinner and felucca boat. Zizo was an excellent guide – very knowledgeable, enthusiastic and helpful. This trip to Egypt will be one I’ll always remember! Thank you 🙂
Excellent tour guide, knew everything about everything and had a great sense of humour. Sam really made our trip to Egypt memorable, exciting and interesting. I would be very interested in coming back here and doing the same tour. I will recommend this tour to many people.
Ramadan:Ramadan is perhaps the most important holiday in Egypt. It occurs on the ninth month of the Muslim lunar year and is a time of blessings and prayers to honour the revelation of the first verses of the Qur'an to the Prophet Muhammad. Ramadan is also a time of fasting where Muslims evade food and drink from sunrise to sunset throughout the month.
Eid al-Fitr:Eid al-Fitre signifies the end of the month of Ramadan or in other words is a festival for the breaking of the fast. In many of the cities there are big celebrations for this and a lot of feasting. Many Egyptians who can afford it, take time to travel and others gather in the streets waiting for sheep and cows to be slaughtered after the morning prayer when the holiday arrives.
Abu Simbel Festival:Ramses II created a large temple at Abu Simbel so that the internal chamber would light up twice a year; in February, on the day he took the throne and in October, the anniversary of his birthday. Every year the Abu Simbel Festival draws a crowd before sunrise to witness the jet of light progressively creeping through the stone and enlightening the sculptures of Ramses, Ra and Amun in the central chamber.
