Some tours show you Egypt. Then there is the luxury tour of Egypt from Memphis Tours — a 11-day private journey that takes you beyond sightseeing and into one of the most profound experiences a traveler can have.
Walk in silence before the Great Pyramids of Giza as the morning light strikes the limestone. Descend into Sakkara's ancient tombs. Stand inside the Grand Egyptian Museum before Tutankhamun's golden mask. Fly south to Luxor and let the Nile carry you through time aboard your luxury cruise — past the towering columns of Karnak, through the sacred Valley of the Kings, beneath the colonnades of Hatshepsut's temple, along the falcon-crowned gateway of Edfu, past the riverside shrines of Kom Ombo, and finally to Philae — the island sanctuary that seems to rise from the Nile like a memory of the ancient world.
