Tutankhamun’s tomb was unearthed, and see the glittering finds in the Egyptian Museum in Cairo. Hop off a Nile boat to visit Dendara, Edfu or one of the other waterside temples, cross Lake Nasser to see Ramses II’s masterpiece at Abu Simbel, or trek into the desert to find the traces of Roman trading outposts.

We are specialist travel agency based in Melbourne. We source suppliers overseas that are sympathetic to the high cost travel arrangements that Aussie travellers experience being so far away from Europe. Our criteria when choosing these suppliers is they must be fully licenced and accredited in the country that they operate the tour from and that they have capacity to cater for the needs of customers travelling from Australia. In spite of social turmoil, Egyptians remain proud and defiant and are as welcoming as ever to visitors to their land. Human Kindness. The old saying that Egypt is the gift of the Nile still rings true: without the river there would be no fertile land, no food, no electricity. And although people's lives are increasingly physically detached from the water, the Nile still exerts a uniquely powerful role. Luckily for visitors, the river is also the perfect place from which to see many of the most spectacular ancient monuments, which is one reason why a Nile cruise remains such a popular way to travel.
