Trip Summary

Your first stop in Egypt will be in Cairo and will take you to the great Pyramids touching the 3,500 year old sandstone. What an amazing feeling! One can almost see himself standing beneath that Pyramid during the time when Pharaohs ruled and the Gods were worshiped. In the distance you would see workers building the next pyramid while Queens and Pharaohs would lounge around, supervising. Imagine, Lotus flowers and papyrus growing alongside the majestic river, workers making papyrus paper which would later be placed in the tombs. All the work and effort that was placed into the tombs was incredible and the meaning behind each God and the hieroglyphics are enough to boggle anyone’s mind.

Trip Summary

The Northern Coast and the Western desert are becoming more and more popular with tourists coming to Egypt. Alexandria the second largest city in Egypt, known as “The Pearl of the Mediterranean”, has an atmosphere that is more Mediterranean than Middle Eastern; its ambience and cultural heritage distance it from the rest of the country although it is actually only 225 km. from Cairo.
We will take you further north to visit the Battlefield of El Alamein and other North African battles related back to the Second World War including the war cemeteries and the museum.
Then You will visit Mersa Matrouh, 290 km west of Alexandria and 222 km from Sallum. The distance from Cairo to Matrouh is 524 km. It lies on a bay on the Mediterranean and is distinguished by its seven km. long beach, which-as all visitors have testified-is one of the most beautiful in the world.
With a population of about 23,000, Siwa, the most inaccessible of all Egypt’s oasis until very recently, is also one of the most fascinating, lying some 60 feed below sea level.. On the edge of the Great Sand Sea, its rich history includes a visit from to consult the Oracle of Amun – The current rage is the Bahariya oasis, where the valley of the golden Mummies was discovered not too long ago, and where new discoveries seem to be cropping up almost continuously. However Siwa Oasis where Alexander the Great visited the Oracle of Amun in 331 BC has been for many years a consistent favourite among the oasis. While the Western desert is sometimes the primary destination for tours, it is more often an add-on for the more common classical tours.
