3 min read

One of the world's earliest civilizations is found in Egypt. Exploring the remnants of this ancient civilization allows one to connect with the past and gain a deeper understanding of the remarkable achievements and cultural contributions of the Egyptian people. Whether you're a history enthusiast or simply someone looking to delve into the wonders of the past, Egypt offers a wealth of experiences that can transport you back in time and leave a lasting impression.

An Egypt tour package is a great way to visit a country that is home, not only to one of the most ancient civilizations, but also to monumental structures that are shrouded in mystery and grandeur. Such architectural marvels showcase the extraordinary achievements of the ancient Egyptians and their advanced architectural and engineering prowess. 

Your Egypt tour package shall start with the sights of Luxor where you will find the famed Valley of the Kings and discover what secrets they hold. Then pass by Deir El Madina, Madinet Habou, and the imposing Colossi of Memnon. Cap your day with a visit to the colonnaded temple to the great Queen Hatshepsut. You will find yourself journeying towards the east bank where you may find majestic temples, pylons, and chapels that make up the Karnak Temple Complex. 

And no Egypt tour package can ever be complete without a walk through the spectacular avenue of ram-headed sphinxes that connect the Precinct of Mut, Precint of Amun-Re, and the Temple of Luxor. 

Another must-see is the dual temple that was dedicated to the Egyptian gods Sobek and Horus – the Kom Ombo – where you can learn about their stories as you gaze at the stone etchings. 

The Egypt tour package cruise will continue on to the city of Aswan where you will be able to enjoy almost infinite architectural marvels. A visit to Philae Temple dedicated to the Egyptian goddess Isis located within the Agilika Islands, and viewing the monumental Aswan Dams should definitely be on the list. The bustling markets of Aswan will entice you with all its local culture and unique wares. An optional visit to the legendary temple complex of Abu Simbel is a great way to delve deeper into the history of the great country that is Egypt.

No Egypt tour package can ever be complete without a visit to the great Pyramids of Giza. As the cruise of the Nile ends, you will be flown to Cairo where you can explore Egypt’s capital beginning with the great pyramids. Be guided to the jaw-dropping ancient wonder that is considered as the tallest man-made structure that has stood for more than 3 millennia.  Wonder at the sight of the great Sphinx, enter the treasure trove that is the Egyptian Museum. 

On the final day of your Egypt tour package, explore the capital at your own pace and maybe consider a trip to Alexandria. Whatever you decide, you can be sure that you will not only leave with unforgettable memories of ancient wonders, but also with a profound appreciation of one of the most ancient civilizations of the world.
