Egypt: Where History Flows With the Nile

At Gin & Tonic Travel, we’ve seen a lot of the world—but few places have left us as spellbound as Egypt. The moment we first laid eyes on the Great Pyramids of Giza, something shifted. It’s not just about seeing the wonders—it’s about feeling them, standing in places where history whispers through every stone.

We explored Cairo’s vibrant chaos, wandered through Alexandria’s historic corners, and stood quietly before the timeless majesty of the Sphinx. And although we only cruised the Nile briefly on our visit, even that short journey hinted at something deeper—a river that has carried life, power, and mystery for thousands of years.

Now, you can go even further.

AmaWaterways’ Secrets of the Nile is more than a cruise—it’s an 11-night journey through living history. Sail in style along the river that has shaped empires, guided by expert Egyptologists who bring each temple, tomb, and tale to life. You’ll explore the legendary Valley of the Kings and Queens, admire the grandeur of the Pyramids, and enjoy rare access to the partially opened Grand Egyptian Museum—home to some of Egypt’s most precious treasures.

 

One of the highlights? A private lunch at the regal Abdeen Presidential Palace—an experience few travelers can claim.

This journey isn’t just about seeing the past; it’s about feeling connected to something timeless. With AmaWaterways’ signature comfort and care, your adventure is curated down to the finest detail—letting you soak up the awe without missing a moment. Egypt has always been on your list—or even if it hasn’t yet—this is the kind of trip that stays with you forever. Let us know if you'd like to talk more about it.

Because some places really do leave you speechless.
