Considered the cradle of civilizations, Egypt is a unique country, a surprising destination full of magic and history that invites its visitors to enjoy an unforgettable experience.

Egypt offers an exciting mix between adventure, culture and mystery that invites everyone who visits it to get lost in its colossal temples and to be enveloped in the bustle of Cairo. Enjoy the tranquility of a cruise on the Nile and gaze at the majestic pyramids before tasting the excellent Egyptian culinary specialties or diving in the vastness of the Red Sea.

As the Greek historian Herodotus said more than two thousand years ago, "who has not seen Egypt has not seen the world.

Egypt is known for its ancient historical sites set in an inhospitable desert landscape. Many tourists are surprised to discover that some of the best attractions are just the opposite: modern cities in the fertile river valley. Visit the pyramids, the sphinx, the Sahara desert, and stroll through the cities that grew on the banks of the Nile and on the Mediterranean coast.

Although you will be able to find ancient ruins throughout Egypt, most of the archaeological sites are located near the cities of Cairo and Luxor.

Head to the southwestern suburbs of Cairo to see the Giza Pyramids and the Great Sphinx. The great Egyptian Museum in Cairo boasts many small objects that were found at excavation sites across the country, including the famous Tutankhamun funerary mask. Tutankhamun's tomb is located in the Valley of the Kings, on the outskirts of the southern city of Luxor, which you can reach by car or cruise on the Nile.

After exploring the deserts, return to the cities of Egypt to learn about its fascinating modern culture. Relax in a cafe on the shores of the Mediterranean on the boardwalk in Alexandria, considered one of the most liberal cities in the Arab world. Read a book with thousands of visitors and locals under the glass roof of the modern Library of Alexandria.
