Egypt 2003

In December 2003, we were off to Egypt for the famous sights that we'd both long wanted to see. We decided to build our trip around an Abercrombie & Kent Splendors of the Nile cruise, adding a side trip to Alexandria before the main tour. We had a wonderful guide for the whole trip, Mahmoud Hamza, a trained Egyptologist. Thanks Mahmoud! City of Alexandria Memphis and Saqqara Pyramids at Giza Temple at Abu Simbel Aswan & Philae Temple at Kom Ombo Esna and Edfu Temples of Thebes Thebes West Bank Temple at Dendera The Nile Cruise City of Cairo

Having someone both friendly and knowledgeable made the trip much better than if we'd gone on our own and we highly recommend A&K and especially Mahmoud to anyone traveling to Egypt. Words can't do it justice to these monuments such as the Great Pyramids and Abu Simbel, and pictures don't really either, but we took plenty of them so here they are!
