You step out of a climate-controlled vehicle and the Nile’s long slow breath seems to push the heat aside — sand-smoothed faces of pharaohs stare back as the river threads the valley. This four-day circuit runs from the Red Sea resort town of Hurghada westward to Luxor, then south along the Nile to Aswan, visiting Karnak, Luxor Temple, the Valley of the Kings, Hatshepsut’s terraces, Edfu, Kom Ombo, Philae and the Unfinished Obelisk, with an optional Abu Simbel extension.
