Egypt holds a special place in the world’s imagination. In a country steeped in history (and a dash of mystery), this immersive Byroads trip takes you into the heart of the ancient world – and will leave you in awe and wonder.
We visit all the unmissable highlights – think the Pyramids of Giza, the Sphinx and the Valley of the Kings. And delve into this remarkable country’s modern history with visits to the Aswan High Dam, Suez Canal and El Alamein War Cemetery.
You’ll be in good company the entire trip. Local guides with a wealth of knowledge will deepen your adventure. Your Byroads host will support you throughout the trip. And a small bunch of fellow wanderers will create meaningful memories alongside you.
