The Nefertiti program is our classic first-timer's Egypt: two nights in Cairo for the Pyramids and the Old Kingdom sites, a five-day Nile cruise with temples visited as per the cruise itinerary, and a final day in Cairo for the museums, the Citadel and the bazaar.
Internal flights between Cairo and Upper Egypt keep the long distances painless, and a Noble Travel representative meets and assists you at every arrival.
