    isiting Luxor was like stepping into a time machine! The Valley of the Kings blew me away with its ancient tombs and intricate hieroglyphs. Our guide was knowledgeable and made the history come alive. We also enjoyed a lovely sunset cruise on the Nile. If you’re a history buff, Luxor is a must-visit!

    Путешествие с детьми
    Мы с семьей посетили Луксор в прошлом месяце. Дети были в восторге от поездки на речном корабле по Нилу! Особенно им понравился Храм Хатшепсут. Много интересных историй и невероятные виды.

    I just returned from an amazing trip to Egypt, where I visited Hurghada, Luxor, Cairo, and Alexandria. Each city was full of history and beauty.

    In Cairo, seeing the Pyramids of Giza was a highlight! They were much bigger than I expected, and the Sphinx nearby was really cool too.

    Next, I went to Luxor and loved the Valley of the Kings. Visiting King Tut’s tomb was a dream come true! The Karnak Temple was also impressive with its huge columns and colorful hieroglyphs.

    In Alexandria, I enjoyed the blend of ancient and modern sights. The Bibliotheca Alexandrina was fascinating and worth a visit.

    Finally, I relaxed in Hurghada, enjoying the sunny beaches and snorkeling in the Red Sea.

    Overall, this trip was unforgettable, and I highly recommend it to anyone who loves history and adventure!

    Я только что вернулся из удивительного путешествия по Египту, где посетил Хургаду, Луксор, Каир и Александрию. Каждое место было наполнено историей и красотой.

    В Каире я был в восторге от пирамид Гизы! Они были гораздо больше, чем я ожидал, а Сфинкс просто потрясающий.

    Затем я поехал в Луксор и очень понравился Долина царей. Посещение гробницы Тутанхамона было настоящей мечтой! Храм Карнак тоже удивил своими огромными колоннами и яркими иероглифами.

    В Александрии я наслаждался сочетанием древности и современности. Библиотека Александрина была интересной и стоила посещения.

    В конце концов, я отдохнул в Хургаде, наслаждаясь солнечными пляжами и сноркелингом в Красном море.

    В целом, это путешествие было незабываемым, и я рекомендую его всем, кто любит историю и приключения!

    Летели только для этой экскурсии специально на неделю, организаторская часть просто отличная. С учётом того, что компания позаботилась обо всём у нас не возникало каких-либо проблем с мелкими деталями по типу еды, напитков и сделать фото
    Очень насыщенная программа, русскоговорящий гид веселил нас всё время нашего нахождения на экскурсии, видно, что работа доставляет ему удовольствие, а оттого приятно слушать таких людей
