You step out of Cairo International Airport into dry air that smells faintly of diesel and spice; the city hums around the great monuments you’ll visit over the next two weeks. The first days put you on the Giza Plateau beneath the shadow of the Great Pyramid, then on to Aswan where the Nile slows and villages tuck against its banks. Midweek you’ll board a traditional Nile cruise, the boat cutting a slow, deliberate path between sandstone cliffs and palm groves, before the trip finishes with a shift in tempo at Sahl Hasheesh’s coral beaches and luxury resort.
