On one of our luxury Nile cruises, you will see that the country’s ancient past is still alive in its majestic monuments and relics, while the complexity of modern Egypt entrances any visitor.

The ancient Egyptians were one of the most impressive civilisations the world has seen, but other ethnicities have shaped this country too, making Egypt a unique mix of the Arabian and Islamic with the Mediterranean. This rich history has created a tapestry of cultural and archaeological treasures unmatched anywhere – so much so that the country is home to one third of the world’s antiquities. From the majestic Pyramids still standing proudly to the mighty Nile flowing through the heart of Egypt, the stark Sahara Desert and the pristine beaches of the Red Sea, this is a destination not to be missed
