From the myriad wonders of Cairo to the shining beaches of Sharm
8 days to discover two faces of Egypt, first the vitality and great historical heritage of the capital Cairo and then the placid and relaxed atmosphere of the famous Sharm el-Sheikh.
Egyptian history and sea scents. From the beating heart of Egyptian history to the rejuvenating embrace of the sea: a journey through two different souls of Egypt in one unforgettable experience through wonder. We will immerse ourselves in the intensity of a thousand-year-old city, amid eternal monuments and atmospheres charged with energy, and then slow our pace and stop on the shores of the Red Sea, where we will be lulled by the calm of its crystal-clear waters.
Cairo treasures. In the capital city of Cairo we will walk among the vestiges of different eras, layered over millennia. The majestic Pyramids of Giza and the mysterious Sphinx will tell us stories of pharaohs and gods, while at the Necropolis of Saqqara we will go even further back in time to the dawn of Egyptian history. We will then discover ancient and modern spiritualities in the Coptic Quarter and among the newer mosques, while the new Grand Egyptian Museum will be a true bridge between the distant past and the future.
Reflections on the Red Sea. As we disembark in Sharm el-Sheikh, time will seem to slow down, and we will be captivated by a sea shimmering under the Sinai sun, in this destination among the most popular among Italian travelers. Three days of pure relaxation await us here, among golden beaches and seabeds that hold colorful wonders, while the sea breeze dissolves all thoughts and invites us to live only the present moment.
