Visits to Cairo are usually based on Giza to the south east of the city, where you find the Pyramids and the Sphinx and be amazed by their size. The fascinating Egyptian Museum includes the burial treasures of the Pharaoh Tutankhamun. In the evening is a Sound and Light Show in the shadow of the Sphinx.
From Cairo fly to Luxor or Aswan to join your Nile river cruise ship - alternatively start your holiday by direct flight to Luxor. From Luxor some cruises go north to Denderah, for a visit to the temple of the God Hathor, then sail back to Luxor.
From Luxor visit the Valley of the Kings, with its hundreds of tombs, most famously that of Tutankhamun. See also the Valley of the Queens, Deir El Bahri, the mortuary temple of Queen Hatsheput and the Colossi of Memnon. Cruises also offer visits to the temple complexes of Luxor and Karnak, both noted architectural sights.
Your cruise ship sails via the river lock at Esna to Edfu. The temple of Edfu, dedicated to the falcon-headed God Horus, is one of the best preserved in Egypt. Further down the River Nile is the famous Kom Ombo temple dedicated to the crocodile God Sobek, with its mummified crocodiles.
Aswanis a colourful city, noted for its markets. Visit the Aswan High Dam, and the temple of Philae which was dismantled and rebuilt to avoid being submerged under the Dam's rising waters. Kitchener Island is a beautiful botanic garden with many exotic plants and trees.
From Aswan there are excursions by air to the temples of Abu Simbel. This massive ancient site was moved from its original position and rebuilt to avoid being submerged by the rising waters of the new Lake Nasser. The people in the picture (bottom right) indicate its huge size.


tutankhamun is synonymous with ancient egyptian history and his fame far outstrips that of any other Egyptian Pharaoh. On inspecting Tutankhamun's tomb within the Valley of the Kings you would wonder why his name is so well known above other Pharoahs, in fact why King Tut left his mark on Ancient Egyptian history at all. The tomb of Tutankhamun is not large, nor is it well painted or decorated and appears as though little care was taken in its hasty completion.
