Highlights

Join us for a fascinating journey across the Nile, where you will explore two hidden gems of ancient Egypt with our expert Egyptologist guide. The Monastery of St. Simeon, founded in the 7th century by Coptic monks, is a remarkable example of early Christian architecture and art. The tombs of the Nobles, carved into the riverside cliffs, offer a glimpse into the lives and beliefs of the elite class of ancient Egyptians. You will learn about the history, culture and religion of these sites, and enjoy the stunning views of the Nile and the desert.
