Description
Embark on a unique adventure with our exclusive all-inclusive "Special Egypt" travel package, ideal for those looking for cheap all-inclusive travel deals and offers to Egypt 2x1 without missing a single detail of this mythical land.
This 8-day / 7-night Egypt holiday begins with a direct scheduled flight from Spain (Madrid, Barcelona, Valencia, Bilbao, Malaga, and Seville) to Luxor, where your extraordinary experience begins. You'll enjoy a 5-day, 4-night Nile cruise with Abu Simbel, sailing from Luxor to Aswan with full board (drinks not included). Along the way, you'll discover the best of Egypt, and the mysteries of the Nile and Abu Simbel will seem like something out of a postcard. The all-inclusive Egypt trip continues in Cairo, where you'll spend 4 days / 3 nights in a comfortable hotel with breakfast included. From this vibrant city, you'll have the opportunity to explore Egypt's most iconic historical sites and immerse yourself in its culture, history, and magic.
The all-inclusive Egypt trip with a Nile cruise, Abu Simbel, and Cairo begins on the East Bank of Luxor, where you'll discover the Valley of the Kings, home to the tombs of the pharaohs, including the tomb of the famous Egyptian king Tutankhamun. You'll also visit the imposing Temple of Queen Hatshepsut at Deir El-Bahari, a stunning structure carved into the cliffs of the Theban Mountains. Along the way, stop to admire the Colossi of Memnon, two enormous statues that have protected the valley for over 3,000 years.
As the boat sails south along the Nile, your next stop is the Temple of Edfu, dedicated to Horus, the falcon-headed god. Famous for its excellent preservation, this temple displays stunning reliefs of the legendary battle between Horus and Seth, as well as large pylons and a vast interior hall. Nearby, you'll visit the Temple of Kom Ombo, a unique double temple shared by two gods: Sobek, the crocodile god, and Haroeris, the elder Horus. Famous for its symmetrical design, the temple features separate sanctuaries for each deity and is known for its reliefs depicting ancient rituals and crocodile worship.
In Aswan, the Egypt tour includes a visit to the picturesque Philae Temple, dedicated to the goddess Isis. Located on an island in the Nile, the temple is famous for its intricate reliefs and its sacred cats, descendants of the temple's ancient guardians, who still roam its gardens.
As an essential part of our all-inclusive Egypt travel packages and deals, you'll visit the imposing Abu Simbel Temples, carved into the mountainside by Ramses II. These colossal structures, dedicated to Ramses II and his queen Nefertari, are masterpieces of ancient engineering. The temples were relocated in the 1960s to prevent them from being submerged by the rising waters of Lake Nasser. Their grandeur and scale will leave you speechless.
After exploring historic Aswan, a domestic flight takes you to the vibrant city of Cairo, where your Egypt vacation continues and you can continue with your 8 days / 7 nights Egypt trip.
This all-inclusive trip package to Egypt undoubtedly includes a visit to the legendary Pyramids of Giza, a stunning site that symbolizes the grandeur of ancient Egyptian civilization. The majestic Pyramid of Cheops, the largest of the three, rises with imposing elegance, while the Pyramid of Khafre offers captivating views from its summit. The Pyramid of Menkaure, although smaller, never ceases to amaze with its structure and mystery. Facing them, the mystical Great Sphinx, with its enigmatic and challenging gaze, adds an air of mystery to this majestic site. Continue your journey into the past with a visit to the Valley Temple of Khafre, an extraordinary mortuary temple where purification rituals are believed to have been performed before burials. Its solid and perfectly preserved architecture offers a fascinating insight into ancient Egyptian practices and beliefs.
Later, head to the stunning Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM), a contemporary architectural achievement that houses the most extensive collection of ancient Egyptian artifacts and a must-see for anyone wishing to travel to Egypt and learn about its millennia-long history. The collection from King Tutankhamun's tomb is the highlight of this world-class museum, along with countless other treasures that tell stories of kings, gods, and forgotten civilizations. End your visit with a delicious lunch at a local restaurant.
In the evening, immerse yourself in Cairo's lively atmosphere with a traditional dinner in a cozy restaurant. Then, let yourself be carried away by the charming bustle of Khan El-Khalili's Grand Bazaar, where the aroma of mint tea and spices permeates the air as you relax in a traditional café, observing the vibrant life flowing around you.
Next day, delve deeper into Cairo's history with a tour of the Egyptian Museum, home to the world's largest collection of Egyptian antiquities. Then, explore the imposing Cairo Citadel, a historic fortress offering spectacular views of the city. Inside, the stunning Alabaster Mosque, a masterpiece of Islamic architecture built by Mohamed Ali, rises with its unique elegance. End your tour with a stroll through the Coptic Quarter, a charming corner home to some of Egypt's oldest Christian monuments, such as the Hanging Church, the Church of Abu Serga, and the Ben Ezra Synagogue.
