One of the most populous countries in Africa and the Middle East, Egypt has one of the longest histories of any modern state. There are thousands of historical sites, local souks, bustling restaurants and even one of the Seven Wonders of the World: the Pyramids. Start your trip in Cairo; which is home to some of the world's most iconic sights - not only the Pyramids but also the Sphinx plus the Egyptian museum housing King Tutankhamen artefacts and royal mummies. Cairo has stood for more than a thousand years on the same site on the banks of the River Nile and mixes modern architecture with the ancient. Spend your days exploring a number of museums and temples before spending three nights onboard a five-star cruise - The Sanctuary Nile Adventurer, allowing you to enjoy the Nile in style boarding in either Luxor or Aswan and ending in the alternate city. This 32 cabin cruise offers the best vantage point from which to take in the pyramids - enjoy a sundowner from the sundeck and reflect on the glories before you. Many people know about the religious importance of Jerusalem; but the fact that Israel is such a beautiful country may be lesser known. This is an enduring combination of the hustle and bustle of the fascinating city of Cairo and all of its iconic sights combined with ultimate relaxation aboard a luxury cruise sailing down the Nile.
