In the footsteps of pharaohs

Egypt

In the Footsteps of Pharaohs

For thousands of years Egypt has been the playground of emperors and kings. Great civilisations have risen from its sandy interiors and the Nile continues to bring life to an otherwise barren land. A period of British occupation left its colonial mark but much of the scenery has barely changed since biblical times and the entire nation is wrapped in an ancient mysticism which has beguiled writers and romantics for centuries.

Today Egypt offers visitors a wealth of rich and varied experiences. Unearth your inner explorer and delve into the Valley of the Kings in Luxor, weave between the impressive pyramids of Giza by camel and trek to the ancient monastery on Mount Sinai then scuba dive the Red Sea and relax on beautiful Mediterranean beaches. Sail the Nile aboard an elegant felucca (sailboat) and luxuriate in exquisite heritage hotels which have hosted the likes of Sir Winston Churchill and Agatha Christie.

Experience Egypt as a modern nation bustling with life and sound, and step back through the sands of time as you follow in the footsteps of pharaohs.
