Gods of Egypt
For travelers eager to experience Egypt’s ancient marvels and vibrant culture with a dash of relaxation, "Gods of Egypt" is a 10-day tour blending the country’s legendary past with modern comforts. This journey starts in Cairo, where you’ll dive into history at the Egyptian Museum and stand before the pyramids and Sphinx of Giza. A traditional Koshary lunch adds authentic local flavor before flying to Aswan for a taste of southern Egyptian culture.
In Aswan, optional excursions to Abu Simbel complement guided visits to Philae Temple and Nubian villages, providing a deep dive into the region’s traditions. Embark on a relaxing Nile cruise, stopping at the temples of Kom Ombo and Edfu, before reaching Luxor—where the Valley of the Kings, Hatshepsut Temple, and Karnak’s grandeur await.
After soaking up Egypt’s historic heart, the tour shifts gears with a stay at a Red Sea resort in Hurghada. Enjoy the "soft all-inclusive" package, pristine beaches, and water sports or simply unwind. The finale brings you back to Cairo for last-minute sightseeing or shopping, with flexible optional excursions to Coptic Cairo, the Citadel, Saqqara, and even Alexandria or Wadi Rayan.
The unique selling point? A thoughtfully balanced itinerary offering both guided depth and relaxing downtime—ideal for those who want a comprehensive, immersive, and flexible Egyptian adventure in a single tour package.
