In the 5th Century B.C., Herodotus, the Greek father of history, made a journey across the Mediterranean to the ancient land of Egypt. He marveled at the pyramids, gazed across the lifeless desert then looked at the fertile Nile Valley and made the statement "Egypt is the gift of the Nile."

Visit the farms of Egypt and see how time has truly stood still. Wander through the Valley of the Kings, visit Luxorand Karnak and see archeological wonders that are unrivaled on earth.

Visit Alexandria 's cotton mills, see Cairo 's belly dancers, visit the Oasis of the Fayum, the Suez Canal, the Aswan High Dam, the Temples of Abu Simbel and see archeological digs in progress as well as temple restorations. Your journey to this intriguing land will conclude with the story of Howard Carter's 1921 discovery of the tomb of King Tutankhamen.
