Egypt is a popular destination among history buffs, adventurers, as well as travelers on vacation looking to bask in the sun, enjoy sandy beaches, diving, and snorkeling.  As much of Egypt’s ancient history is recorded in awe-inspiring temples, for history buffs and adventure seekers, we recommend touring the sites along the Nile River. Start in Cairo and tour the famed pyramids of Giza guarded by the mystical Great Sphinx Stop in Luxor to explore the well-preserved Karnak and Luxor Temple complex built in the 2nd century BCE Finish your tour in Aswan, home to the Philae Temple and Nubian Museum  Sonesta hotels are located in all three historic sites, offering a truly immersive experience for your Egyptian adventure.
