Travel International Club offers Egypt for 2020

Cindy Watty, President

The Travel International Club has added a 12-day Egypt tour for 2020! Cruise the Nile in a manner once reserved for queens and pharaohs.

For 12 adventure-filled days, experience Egypt and the Nile’s most wondrous sites in style and luxury. Set sail on an eight-day voyage onboard Uniworld’s all-suite SS Sphinx. Wander amongst the towering ruins of the Temple of Karnak, the world’s largest ancient religious complex and the entrancing Temple of Luxor. Visit temples dedicated to Hathor, Horus and other mythological figures and pay homage to the country’s first female ruler at the Temple of Hatshepsut. Follow in the footsteps of renowned scholars and explorers as you venture forth into the Valley of the Kings, the ancient burial grounds of Egyptian royalty. You will enjoy an exhilarating ride in a felucca, a traditional Nile River sailboat.

This captivating itinerary begins and ends in Cairo, where you’ll visit the famous Egyptian Museum and its stupendous and unrivaled collection of pharaonic artifacts, including treasures recovered from the tomb of King Tutankhamun. You’ll more than likely see new and old Egypt morph into one while on your travels with new developments such as this property in Sheikh Zayed Egypt, as well as many more new and modern-looking properties being constructed around Cairo. Journey to Giza to gaze upon the mighty ancient Pyramids and the timeworn, enigmatic Sphinx-iconic images that continue to amaze.
