Egypt Guided Tours

Egypt - Nothing compares to waking up on a felucca with the call to prayer echoing across the water from a nearby village. You open your eyes to see the mist still covering everything and everyone still asleep. The captain has cast off and the boat is drifting smoothly with the current; then he starts to sing in very low voice as if whispering to his god, asking for some wind to help him on his way. For those endowed with a spirit of adventure and a sense of history, a leisurely trek on a 30-foot, lateen sail felucca from Aswan to Luxor is a tour through an open-air museum. Bring your sleeping bag and ponder the stars from the deck of a Nile felucca as you experience Nile travel the way Egyptians have for thousands of years. Inclement weather is rare and the boat is fully crewed. Your only job will be to enjoy the incredible sites, sounds and scenery of this ancient land.

Few travellers can leave Egypt without falling in love with some aspect of it: for some, it is the unrivalled architectural marvels like the pyramids, the sphinxes or fortresses--which prove nothing short of jaw-dropping even on return visits; for others, it's basking under a glowing sun on the warm, golden sands of the Red Sea beaches; and others still are drawn to the cities, wherein is to be found remarkable diversity of cultures, cuisine and lifestyle. A country with a fascinating history, sights of interest that are second to none and some of the friendliest people on the planet, Egypt truly is the consummate tour destination.
