CLICK HERE FOR MORE INFORMATION AND TO BOOK Discover the world-famous ancient wonders, stunning natural phenomenon and idyllic, riverside cycling of Egypt on this once-in-a-lifetime ride following the Nile. Kicking off in Cairo, we’ll cycle to the amazing sites in Memphis and Saqqara, the City of the Dead, including the sacred sphinxes and pyramids of Giza, before exploring the man-made and natural treasures of Fayoum Oasis, which have supported the lives of humans and wildlife in Egypt for over 8,000 years! We then fly south to Aswan and follow the Nile further to the Philae Temple Complex on Agilika Island and our exquisite Nile River cruise ship! Resting on the cruise ship by night, by day we’ll cycle to a mind-blowing variety of monuments built across millennia and gain insight into their history from our fantastic local guide. Together, we’ll travel through time, through the 31 dynasties of the Ancient Egyptians and on to the Greco-Roman period, as we visit the Kom Ombo, Esna, Edfu and Luxor Temples, the underground tombs at the Valley of Kings and the magnificent temple honouring the female pharaoh, Hatshepsut, whose reign was one of the most extraordinary in Ancient Egyptian history.
