Heaven on Earth — that is the only way to describe the 8 Days Luxury Cairo and Dahabiya with Memphis Tours. Across eight extraordinary days, this deeply personal luxury travel to Egypt carries you from the Giza Plateau — where the pyramids have stood for 4,500 years — to the tranquil golden waters of the Nile aboard one of Egypt's most beautiful sailing vessels.
Arrive in Cairo for private guided tours of the Great Pyramids, the Sphinx, the Valley Temple, the Sakkara Step Pyramid complex, the Grand Egyptian Museum's Tutankhamun treasures, and the spice-scented lanes of Islamic Cairo and Khan El Khalili. Fly to Luxor for Karnak Temple and the Valley of the Kings, then step aboard Nebyt — your intimate floating sanctuary. Sail slowly south through El Kab's rock-cut tombs, the sandstone drama of Gebel El Silsila, the falcon-crowned Edfu Temple, Kom Ombo at sunset, and the luminous Philae Temple glowing on the waters of Aswan.
