Luxury holidays in the Middle East and North Africa
Sail the Nile past temples and walk into Petra through its canyon. Share your dates, and we link the region's ancient sites in one trip, with guides and hotels booked.
It comes off your final price, and is refunded in full if you don't go ahead.
Few journeys put you this close to the start of recorded history. You stand in the shadow of the Great Pyramid at Giza, walk the Siq into Petra and see Hegra's tombs rise out of the AlUla sand. A Nile cruise joins Luxor and Aswan, and each site comes with an expert guide who brings the carvings to life.
Between the ancient sites, there is time to slow down. Morocco's riads hide quiet courtyards behind the medina walls of Marrakech and Fez, and Bedouin camps in Wadi Rum serve dinner under clear skies. Tunisia adds Roman ruins and Saharan oases, and the Red Sea brings coral for diving and snorkelling.
