A luxury trip to Egypt is more than seeing the Pyramids — it is about tasting, feeling, and genuinely living the country that built the ancient world. Our 8-day Oriental Package is crafted for travelers who want exactly that: the grandeur of pharaonic Egypt combined with the warmth, flavors, and living culture that make this country utterly unique. Begin in Cairo at Le Riad — a boutique hotel whose intimate elegance reflects the city's own character — and let your private Egyptologist guide take you to the Giza Plateau for a complimentary professional Pyramids photo session before exploring the jaw-dropping Grand Egyptian Museum. Fly south to Aswan where the DWA 5-star Nile cruise welcomes you aboard for three full-board nights of extraordinary sailing — from the serene Philae Temple on its Nile island, past the crocodile gods of Kom Ombo, to Edfu's flawlessly preserved Temple of Horus. In Luxor, the Valley of the Kings and the towering columns of Karnak Temple close the ancient chapter before Cairo opens a final, vibrant act: the Mohammed Ali Mosque, the Sultan Hassan and El Rifai Mosques, the sensory overload of Khan El Khalili bazaar, and a guided food tour through Downtown Cairo — Koshari, Shawarma, Falafel, and strong Egyptian coffee. This is the luxury trip to Egypt that nourishes the soul as well as the eyes.
