What to See In Egypt?

Design Your Custom Tour

The Giza Pyramids and the Sphinx is usually the first thing that comes to mind when people think about Egypt tourist attractions. In truth, however, there are some many other amazing ancient monuments that are just as impressive, perhaps even more impressive. The Valley of Kings is just one example. This ancient royal burial ground is home to more than 60 tombs, and several of them are open to visitors, including the tomb of King Tutankhamen.

Other examples would be the magnificent rock-cut temples of Pharaoh Ramses II and his wife Queen Nefertari at Abu Simbel, and the mortuary temple of Queen Hatshepsut in Luxor. In our opinion, the best way to see and enjoy many of the top attractions is by means of a Nile River cruise from Aswan to Luxor or from Luxor to Aswan.
