Luxury Egypt Travel

Ancient stone above Cairo, a slow river south, and reefs that end the journey in stillness.

Egypt sets the Pyramids of Giza above Cairo, the temples of Luxor and Aswan along a slow Nile cruise, and the coral reefs of the Red Sea within one journey. A luxury itinerary pairs the Egyptian Museum with days aboard a private dahabiya and a final stretch of diving or resting by the sea. The Pyramids, the last standing wonder of the ancient world, remain the country’s defining image.

When to Visit Egypt

October to April brings the mildest weather for the Pyramids and the Nile valley, with December to February the most comfortable and most crowded. The Red Sea coast remains swimmable throughout summer.
