Experience the best of Jordan and Egypt on an intimate journey from Petra and Wadi Rum to Luxor and Cairo, exploring the region’s most iconic sites and relaxing in elegant accommodations, like the bespoke dahabeah ‘Sanctuary Zein Nile Chateau,’ your home for a three-night cruise along the Nile.

A&K Advantages

  • Explore Petra, the ancient desert city in Jordan carved into solid rock, viewing its famed, pillared Treasury and learning its myriad secrets
  • Roam by 4x4 through Jordan’s Wadi Rum, watching the sun set over red-hued stone outcroppings and dining like Bedouins beneath desert stars
  • Float with ease in the buoyant, mineral-rich waters of the restorative Dead Sea
  • Cruise the Nile on intimate, exclusively chartered ‘Sanctuary Zein Nile Chateau,’ visiting many iconic sites, including the Temple of Luxor and the tomb of Tutankhamun

  • Discover the stunning temples of Ramses II and Queen Nefertari in Abu Simbel
  • Overnight at the historic Sofitel Legend Old Cataract Aswan, where Agatha Christie stayed on the visit to Egypt that inspired her to write Death on the Nile
