The Luxury Egypt and the Nile Tour by Memphis Tours is the finest private 8-day Egypt experience available — a seamlessly guided journey from the commanding plateau of Cairo through the golden temple cities of Luxor and Aswan.

Begin in Cairo with three nights of private, unhurried discovery: the Great Pyramids of Giza, the legendary Sphinx, the Valley Temple, and the world-class Grand Egyptian Museum — home to Tutankhamun's golden treasures and over 100,000 pharaonic artifacts. Fly south to Luxor and board your 5-star luxury Nile Cruise for four nights of full-board sailing to Aswan. Along the way, discover the colossal columns of Karnak Temple, the sacred Valley of the Kings, Hatshepsut's extraordinary mortuary temple, the perfectly preserved Temple of Horus at Edfu, the twin-deity shrine at Kom Ombo, and the ethereal island sanctuary of Philae in Aswan.

Memphis Tours provides private air-conditioned vehicles, dedicated Egyptologist guides, all entrance fees, hotel accommodation with breakfast, and full-board cruise dining throughout. This Luxury Egypt and the Nile Tour sets the benchmark for Egypt travel.
