Cairo - Aswan - Abu Simbel - Kom Ombo - Edfu - Luxor - Hurghada - Cairo
Pharaohs and beach in one trip: the Pyramids and the Grand Egyptian Museum, a three-night Nile cruise from Aswan to Luxor, then three nights on the Red Sea with a desert safari and a day of snorkelling.
Perfect when one of you loves history and the other wants sun and sea, or when you simply want both. You begin in Cairo with the Pyramids and the Grand Egyptian Museum, then fly to Aswan for a three-night cruise past the great temples to Luxor.
From Luxor you cross the desert to Hurghada for three relaxed nights on the Red Sea, with a sunset safari to a Bedouin camp and a boat day on the coral reefs, before a last afternoon in medieval Cairo.
