Egypt escorted small group tours

What to expect on tour

Naturally, Egypt’s archaeological treasures take centre stage. With Cox & Kings, you visit the major sights, including the Great Pyramid of Giza – the oldest and last surviving of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World – and its stone-still guardian, the Sphinx. But we also take you to less-hailed highlights, such as the Temple of Edfu and the Philae complex, both of which reveal the classical Greek and Roman influence on ancient Egypt.

The pharaonic dynasties sprung up along the Nile, leaving a wealth of temples and monuments on the riverbanks. Taking you between these sites, our Egypt escorted tours include luxury Nile cruises that evoke the golden age of travel. Routes incorporate both the Nile’s east and west banks, with excursions to the Valley of the Kings, the temples of Karnak and Luxor, and beyond. You’re accommodated aboard five-star vessels, guaranteeing your comfort throughout.
