3 Days Cairo Alexandria Luxor Short Break Tour Package

With our Egypt travel packages, you'll get a chance to experience all of Egypt's most famous sites without having to deal with their notorious heat. We'll take you first to Cairo, where you can see the pyramids at Giza and go inside the museum holding King Tutankhamun's tomb before heading off to Alexandria for some time at the beach or visiting Pompey's Pillar (which is actually not a pillar but an obelisk). 

After that, you will head to Luxor with our Cairo short breaks packages and spend two days seeing some of Egypt's most beautiful temples like Karnak and Valley of the Kings before ending our tour back in Cairo so we can catch our flights home. From the 18th Dynasty through the 20th Dynasty, Luxor (Thebes) was a major center and force in terms of political, religious, and military control. It played a significant role in dispersing and destroying the Hyksos invasion forces in Upper Egypt.

In Aswan, there are special places called the Tombs Of The Nobles In Aswan. These places can teach us interesting things about the ancient Egyptians and how they used to live a very long time ago.
