From your Cairo hotel, your Egyptian tour starts as our friendly guide arrives to welcome you. The Great Pyramids of Giza stretch ahead to astonish you with their majestic construction high above the desert land. The mighty structure awaits you during your Egypt tour, while the Great Sphinx watches the world go by, holding its untold secrets from the days of the ancients.

The ultimate experience brings the traveler to the original Egyptian pyramids raised above the gigantic buildings at the Giza Plateau: Khufu, Khafre, and Menkaure, which also apparently transcend human imaginative scrutiny and the test of time. 

The southern part leads to Saqqara, which houses the first known burial sites of Egypt. Here is found the Step Pyramid of King Djoser, the most advanced engineering at the time that brought man closer to the realization of magnificent future pyramids.

Begin your visit to Alexandria by touring its ancient Greco-Roman center that both historical records and stories praise. Tour the Roman Catacombs of Kom El Shoqafa, which used to serve as a combined Egyptian-Roman burial site. When built as a personal tomb, it turned into a communal burial site and now displays 300 historic tombs that display Alexandria's historical past.

The Pillar of Pompey stands tall with its temple remains, while the Citadel of Qaitbay watches as a castle defense fortress. Sultan Al-Ashraf Qaitbay built the citadel to guard against Ottoman and Turkish threats, and it shows how Egypt thrived throughout history.

Take pleasure in viewing the Library of Alexandria building from the outside at the end of your Egypt trip through Alexandria. Take your meal at a local dining place before returning to Cairo.

Before leaving for the 2027 eclipse, enjoy your hotel breakfast while eagerly waiting. Go to Karnak Temple and observe the secrets of ancient Egypt revealed during the celestial occurrence of the cosmic phenomenon. The moon shines with a bright halo from the sun's corona for a rare 6 minutes and 23 seconds when it covers the sun, and an amazing transformation is created. After that, go to Luxor Temple and discover how hieroglyphics show the lives of royal pharaohs and gods.

The Nile cruise trip begins with breakfast on the ship before the ship takes you to the Edfu Temple of Horus along horse-drawn roads under sunny skies. The temple is doubly praised for its place on the list of Greco-Roman Wonders, but it is special with the giant pylons and accurate reliefs everywhere, which are occupied by Horus' legendary falcon statue.

Your Nile cruise itinerary begins with Kom Ombo Temple. Travelers visit the double temple at Kom Ombo because it maintains religious offerings to both Sobek, the horror crocodile god, and Horus, the mighty divine falcon deity. You should see drawings along with an education about Sobek mythology in the Crocodile Museum. You'll get back to the cruise at the end of your day and head back to the ship.

Visiting these ancient temples creates an extraordinary connection with historic rulers because they change religious experience into an exceptional spiritual occasion. The magnificent work and massive scale of historical buildings cause you deep respect when you see these ancient structures preserved with their original creative genius. When our visit ends, we will depart our cruise ship for Abu Simbel's natural wonders while keeping our temple memories alive.

Optional tour: Nubian Village tour.

You can also see the Unfinished Obelisk, which allows visitors to walk through the lost granite stone base of ancient history. The colossal column was originally built by expert craftsmen to last forever, but they left it half-finished in the middle when time forgot.
