Crusaders, Petra and Pyramids - Family

15 days - from $2890

Experience Egypt and Jordan – shifting sands, ancient temples, Roman ruins and a Bedouin adventure Arriving in Cairo, we visit the Egyptian Museum, pyramids and Sphinx. Further south we ride camels and take a sailboat trip around Aswan’s islands.

A relaxing Nile cruise then brings us to Luxor, where we visit Karnak Temple and the Valley of the Kings before returning to Cairo. A morning is spent at the fascinating Pharaonic Village, where we gain a fun, interactive insight into life in ancient Egypt, before exploring the bustling, centuries-old Khan el Khalili bazaar.

Mt Sinai is the next stop, before crossing into Jordan, where we spend a night in a traditional Bedouin camp deep in the spectacular setting of Wadi Rum – a real highlight! We take a full day to discover the amazing city of Petra, visit a Crusader castle, and swim (or float!) in the Dead Sea, before our adventure ends in Amman.
