Few places arouse more fascination and curiosity than Egypt. One of the world’s oldest civilizations, Egypt has a recorded history of more than 5,000 years. Flying aboard our private de Havilland dash above Egypt, tour the historic temples, tombs and sites of this living museum on our Wings Over the Nile Tour. The Nile River has supported large populations along its lush, fertile banks for centuries. On International Expeditions’ Egypt cruise aboard the M/S Oberoi Philae you will explore the great Nile River which flows through the country’s desert. 

 

In addition to its distinction as the kingdom of the Pharaohs, Egypt has a remarkable Christian heritage. You can discover it at St. Catherine’s Monastery in the Sinai Desert during International Expeditions’ Egypt travel tour. You’ll then explore another great site of antiquity at Petra, Jordan’s rose-red rock city that lay hidden from the world for more than 1,000 years on your Jordan and Egypt vacation. Your journey concludes with a relaxing stay along the scenic shores of the Dead Sea, which includes a visit to ancient Jerash — a remarkably preserved city known as the “Pompeii of the East.”

 

You’ll explore it all — Egypt and Jordan — in true style, by private chartered plane. You’ll fly between destinations within Egypt and across the Red Sea to Aqaba in Jordan, meaning you’ll travel in comfort and make the most of your time.
