Egypt – the cradle of civilization.  Have you ever wished to see a pyramid, to wonder at the most breathtaking architectural works in all of history?  Or enter one and explore the exciting tunnels and chasms within?  Have you ever imagined yourself visiting the crypt of an ancient king and inspecting precious pieces of ancient Egyptian culture? 

the most popular Egyptian tours are visits to Pyramids and museums of ancient civilizations.  Within these ancient Egypt Tours that are typically of a Pharoanic nature, you will be in a position to tour Cairo, Luxor and Aswan, and see not only awesome markers of ancient Egyptian history, but also landmarks of religious importance.  You can also organize your tour to even include a cruise down the Nile brook as well. 

there are several tours on offer, some with definite itineraries, others organized according to your chosen route, generally dependent on how much you wish to see and how long you intend to stay.  Highlights of the tours include the Giza ( Great Pyramid ) and the Saqqara ( Step ) Pyramids, the castle, an Islamic market called Khan el-Khalili, as well as other markets, churches and museums, all in Cairo.  In Luxor, the must-see landmarks would be at least one or two of the many fine monuments and tombs found on the West Bank, that may prove to be welcome escapes from the heat of the town.  Make sure to also visit the Luxor and Karnak churches and the highly popular Luxor museum, all on the East Bank. 

though you can fly or catch a train between Cairo, Luxor and Aswan, we highly recommend the bus rides between Luxor and Aswan, as these trips sometimes have stopovers at popular, consequential monuments along the way.  In Aswan, you could tour Elephantine Island, the Nubian museum and the half finished Obelisk, the High Dam and St.  Simon’s monastery.  If you’ve got an extra day to spare, you could also visit the temples of Abu Simbel, and have more time to see Aswan’s plenty of other attractions. 

non secular tours are also highly favored,eg the Holy Family route and the Exodus route, as well as tours of Islamic mosques.  You can imagine Moses leading the selected people out of Egypt as you follow in their steps.  Unstructured spiritual tours are also on offer, permitting you to see highlights from either the Holy Family and Exodus routes, as well as monuments found in the Pharoanic tours. 

The ancient Egypt Tour is the best holiday for the daredevil in you, and a great tutorial trip for the entire family, especially if you have around 2 weeks to spare.  Apart from absorbing the fantastic ancient cultures, you may also get to meet a folk who are splendidly accommodating and friendly.
