Our Travel Secrets
Sunset on the Nile You cannot say you have experienced Egypt unless you have witnessed one of the celebrated sunsets. Sailing in a traditional felucca along the Nile is the most peaceful way to watch the day turn to night.
Bizarre Bazaars! Spend a few hours wandering the labyrinth of alleys in the bustling Khan el-Khalili bazaar. A centre of commerce since the Middle Ages, the souk is littered with jewels, spices and antiques.
Dinner with the Locals The Nubians have lived in Egypt for thousands of years and their unique culture still flourishes in Aswan. Take a river boat across the Nile to a traditional Nubian village and enjoy the hospitality of a local family.
Winter Palace, Luxor INDULGE This is one of Luxor’s most luxurious hotels and has been hosting royalty since it opened its doors in 1886. Just minutes from Luxor Temple, the 5* opulence is well matched to the Nile’s splendid setting.
