Pyramids to Petra
The Wonders of Cairo
In Cairo you visit the legendary Pyramids of Giza and the enigmatic Sphinx. You'll also see the vast array of treasures stored in the Egyptian Museum. Journey into the remote lands of the Sinai Peninsular to explore St Catherine's Monastery and make a breathtaking sunrise ascent of Mt. Sinai itself. You'll then enjoy a camel trek and snorkel on the shores of the Red Sea at charming Dahab.
Red Sea & Petra
Crossing the Red Sea by ferry you journey straight to Wadi Rum to camp Bedouin-style beneath the towering canyons that were once the desert hideout of Lawrence of Arabia. The journey climaxes as you discover the legendary rock-cut city of Petra, and with an enchanting stay in the remote nature reserve at Dana.
Explore in depth...
If you would prefer a more in-depth adventure then have a look at our dedicated Jordan trips and our range of Egyptian holidays. In Jordan enjoy time at the Dead Sea and explore Kerak. In Egypt explore the Nile Valley including the Valley of the Kings in Luxor and the wonders of Aswan. Alternatively spend time sailing the Nile on a felucca or camping out in the remote western desert.
