Personal View
Melanie Legge enjoyed one of our Egypt cruises
“....thank you for putting together the most marvellous trip for us....all aspects of the holiday outstripped expectations. From the moment we touched down on Egyptian soil we were looked after superbly. The agents that you have at every stage could not have been more polite, respectful yet humourous, and very "on the ball". Everything happened as they explained it would, and bang on time.”
At World Discovery we specialise in Luxury Nile Cruises between Luxor and Aswan in Upper Egypt - the most relaxing and enjoyable way of visiting the great temples and tombs of the south.
For a first-time visitor an Egypt cruise would not be complete without a short stay in Cairo, the country's bustling capital, home to the Pyramids and Sphinx, the Museum of Egyptian Antiquities, the medieval city of Saladin and the atmospheric Khan el-Khalili bazaar.
For those who want to combine a sightseeing tour with a leisure break, World Discovery can make arrangements for a stay at some of Egypt’s top beach resorts on the Mediterranean or Red Sea coasts, as well as organising Lake Nasser cruises or adventurous journeys into the Western Desert.
