Tour Highlights

We have just returned from an amazing trip to Laos, Cambodia and Vietnam. Our travel adviser Albee Ning prepared a wonderful itinerary taking us to great locations with creative activities highlighting local culture.
We traveled with Asia Highlights (Lissie was our agent) several years ago when we went to Saigon, and the experience was so positive, we automatically went to Asia Highlights again for an extensive trip to Southeast Asia.

Fly from Cairo to Luxor. Enjoy some free time in Luxor before having a night tour of Luxor Temple. You will avoid the crowds during the evening off-peak time.

Experience sailing on a felucca on the Nile in the afternoon. It is one of the top things to do for those looking for a relaxing vacation in Egypt.
After a satisfying breakfast in the hotel, your guide will drive you to the Valley of the Kings and Queens, which houses the tombs of 63 pharaohs, including the mysterious Tutankhamun II.
You will get flashbacks into the royal family's life in their glory days as you survey the breathtaking underground palaces, amazing paintings, and marvelous pillars.
Drive from Luxor to Hurghada. Check in at a 5-star hotel on the beach and enjoy your free time for the rest of the day.
Set sail on the immense blue sea and enjoy the balmy Indian Ocean breeze. You might meet a pod of adorable dolphins! I bet you can’t wait to join these playful creatures. Don’t worry, you will be provided with full equipment for snorkeling — just have fun and swim with the rich sea life!
Jump into a 4x4 car with us, and join an expedition into the desert. Enjoy the breathtaking desert views along the road, and then visit the local Bedouin tribes. See how they graze their cattle and make traditional food and tea. Experience their courageous spirit and pursuit of freedom.
