Egypt Family Holiday: Mummies & Red Sea

9 Days / 8 Nights from £1795/ $2334 per person

The Egypt family holiday is an unforgettable adventure that takes in the great Pyramids of Giza, Tutankhamen’s fabulous golden treasures, and the Valley of the Kings; before continuing to the Red Sea where it concludes with some R&R. Egypt is an incredible destination that will appeal to all age groups and will deliver the family trip of a lifetime. Imagine your family's excitement and fascination when travelling in the footsteps of the legendary archaeologist Indiana Jones and coming face to face with a mummy at the Egyptian Museum; or following the pharaohs on (part of) their journey through to the afterlife in the Valley of the Kings, and learning about the curious customs of ancient Egyptian culture and their mysterious animal headed gods! In between sightseeing, we have built in special activities and experiences that will ensure against any temple fatigue. At the pyramids you’ll ride a camel and enjoy an unmissable photo-op, then in Luxor travel by donkey through the exotic and timeless scenery of Upper Egypt, and as the sun nears the horizon after touring tombs and temples you’ll board a traditional wooden felucca for a magical sunset cruise on the River Nile. The Egypt family holiday also includes time to relax and enjoy the beautiful freeform swimming-pool at the Hilton Luxor Resort before you cross the Eastern Desert to the Red Sea coast. While at the Red Sea you’ll be able to be as active or as relaxed as you choose. There is no shortage of things to do! The family friendly Kempinski Soma Bay is set within beautiful landscaped grounds and has stunning lagoon-style swimming-pools, a sandy beach, and a house reef that is perfect for snorkeling. Children and young adults alike will love the Soma Splash Aqua Park, while water-sports enthusiasts may wish to try their hand at wake-boarding, scuba diving, or learning to kitesurf at one of the world’s top locations.
