Ten days among pyramids and temples, with four nights drifting down the Nile.
Some journeys happen once in a lifetime, and this is one of them. Ten days through the Egypt of the pharaohs, from Alexandria to the Valley of the Kings, with four nights aboard a five star cruise on the Nile between Luxor and Aswan. You see the pyramids of Giza and the Sphinx, step inside the Grand Egyptian Museum, walk Karnak in the late afternoon light and reach Abu Simbel and the colossi of Ramesses II. The trip is organised by Quinto Império, a brand of Limite Viagens e Turismo, a travel agency operating since 1991, and Book 'N Pin is with you from your first question to the day you fly. Places are limited and there is a single departure: 4 to 13 December 2026.
Times are approximate and we adapt to you.
Flight from Lisbon to Cairo and the days on the Giza plateau, with the pyramids of Khufu, Khafre and Menkaure, the Sphinx, the Citadel and the Grand Egyptian Museum.
Alexander's city, with today's Bibliotheca Alexandrina and the Qaitbay fortress, built where the Lighthouse once stood.
The hypostyle hall at Karnak, the Valley of the Kings with its rock cut tombs, and Queen Hatshepsut's temple set against the cliff.
The five star cruise runs from Luxor down to Aswan, full board, with the banks of the Nile sliding slowly past your cabin window.
The temple of Horus at Edfu, among the best preserved in Egypt, and the curious double temple at Kom Ombo, dedicated to two gods at once.
The temple of Isis at Philae, saved from the water stone by stone, and a late afternoon sailing between the islands on a lateen rigged felucca.
Four giant figures cut into the rock, moved in the nineteen sixties to escape the rising waters behind the dam.
Farewell dinner in the Khan el-Khalili bazaar, among spice shops and old cafés, and the flight back to Lisbon the next day.

Ideal for anyone who has always wanted to see Egypt and would rather do it in a small group, with everything arranged and no visas, transfers or tickets to sort out along the way. It suits couples, friends travelling together and solo travellers, with a single room option. The pace is full, with early starts and a fair amount of walking on uneven ground in the sun, so come ready to be on your feet. December is one of the best months to go: mild days in Cairo and on the Nile, without the punishing summer heat.
The trip is organised and operated by Quinto Império, a brand of Limite Viagens e Turismo, a travel agency working since 1991. Book 'N Pin is a booking channel and stays with you through the process: we take your enquiry, answer questions and pass the booking on. The travel contract is signed with the organising agency.
The departure is 4 to 13 December 2026, ten days. The price is €3,790 per person sharing a double room, with flights, cruise, hotels, visits, guide, insurance and taxes included. Solo travellers pay a single room supplement of €580.
The entry visa, around 25 US dollars and issued on arrival, drinks on board and at meals, gratuities for guides and crew, and personal expenses. The single room supplement is also separate.
Yes, but it is straightforward: for most passports it is issued on arrival for around 25 US dollars. Always confirm the rules for your nationality with the consulate before travelling, as they can change.
Four nights aboard a five star boat between Luxor and Aswan, in an outside cabin with a panoramic window, full board. The boat is your hotel for those days, so there is no packing and unpacking.
It is a small group and places are limited. The first departure sold out, so it is worth registering your interest early if the date works for you.
