The Sphinx and the Great Pyramid of Giza
Egypt · 8 Nights · 3 Stays & a Nile Cruise

The Pyramids & the Nile

Eight nights along the river that made a civilisation — from the pyramids of Giza to the temples of Luxor and Aswan, aboard a privately chartered Nile vessel.

Below is one way the journey might unfold. Every night, table, and transfer is ours to reshape until it is unmistakably yours.

  1. 1
    Day 1

    Cairo

    Arrive to a Nile-view suite. An evening to settle in, with dinner overlooking the river and the lights of the city.

  2. 2
    Day 2

    Giza

    The pyramids and the Sphinx with a private Egyptologist, arranged before the gates open. The treasures of the Egyptian Museum after.

  3. 3
    Day 3

    Luxor

    Fly south to Luxor. The vast columns of Karnak and Luxor Temple, then board your privately chartered Nile vessel.

  4. 4
    Day 4

    Luxor & the West Bank

    The Valley of the Kings and the temple of Hatshepsut, perhaps by hot-air balloon at dawn. Begin sailing south.

  5. 5
    Day 5

    Edfu & Kom Ombo

    Riverside temples reached by horse-carriage, and long, slow hours watching the green banks of the Nile drift past.

  6. 6
    Day 6

    Aswan

    The island temple of Philae and a Nubian village, then a felucca under sail as the sun sets over the cataracts.

  7. 7
    Day 7

    Aswan

    An optional private flight to the colossi of Abu Simbel, or a gentler morning among the souks and gardens of Aswan.

  8. 8
    Day 8

    Cairo

    Return north for a farewell night, the whole sweep of the Nile behind you, before your onward journey home.
