Few destinations are as evocative as Egypt, a rambling tale of cultural and historic spectacles, where thousands of years of history are played out on the banks of the Nile. Discovering Egypt with A&K means sailing the world’s longest river in style: on board our luxurious vessels, consistently voted the best on the river, you will experience first-class service, mooring at private docks close to the region’s world-famous sites. Our riverboats retain a sense of the 1920s romance of Agatha Christie’s day, with breezy restaurant decks, cocktail bars and pool-side daybeds, alongside modern trappings such as private saunas and air-conditioning in every suite. Throughout your journey, resident Egyptologists will bring the stories of ancient Egypt to life. Exceptional at knowing when to miss the crowds, they will take you behind the scenes and unlock the secrets to some of Egypt’s most spectacular sites, arranging immersive experiences exclusive to A&K guests, whether you want to join an archaeological dig or visit a temple out of hours without another soul around.
