What does an 8 days Egypt tour include? Memphis Tours' Egypt tour covers three of the country's most historically significant cities — Cairo, Aswan, and Luxor — in a single, expertly managed package. In Cairo, you visit the Great Pyramids of Giza, the Great Sphinx, and the Grand Egyptian Museum. From Cairo, an overnight sleeper train carries you to Aswan, where you explore Philae Temple, the Unfinished Obelisk, and the Aswan High Dam. You then board a five-star Nile cruise sailing from Aswan to Luxor, stopping at Kom Ombo Temple, Horus Temple at Edfu, and the Valley of the Kings. In Luxor, guided visits continue to Hatshepsut Temple, the Colossi of Memnon, Karnak Temple, and Luxor Temple. The package includes hotel accommodation with daily breakfast in Cairo, a full-board Nile cruise cabin, a private English-speaking Egyptologist guide throughout, all entrance fees, private air-conditioned vehicle transfers, and round-the-clock guest support from Memphis Tours. A flight upgrade option is also available for those wishing to travel by air instead of train. "

The trip was super great. Personally, I really enjoyed Morocco. There was this place called "Café Maure" it overlooks the “Abouregrag” River, We had tea with mint there and the view was amazing.
