Egypt and Morocco: Ancient Wonders and Vibrant Cities

Few journeys capture the imagination quite like Egypt and Morocco.

This Maher tour brings together two extraordinary destinations, combining the ancient wonders of Egypt with the colour, culture and energy of Morocco.

In Egypt, travellers experience some of the most remarkable sites of the ancient world. Standing before the Great Pyramids of Giza and the mysterious Sphinx is a powerful moment, reminding us of the extraordinary civilisation that once flourished along the Nile.

A highlight of the journey is a four night cruise on the legendary Nile River. Travelling between Luxor and Aswan, the cruise visits iconic temples such as Karnak and Luxor and explores the Valley of the Kings, where pharaohs were laid to rest thousands of years ago. Watching life along the river drift by from the deck of the ship offers a unique perspective on this remarkable country.

The tour also visits the impressive new Grand Egyptian Museum and the extraordinary temples of Abu Simbel.

The journey then continues to Morocco, where ten days are spent exploring some of the country’s most fascinating cities and coastal towns.

From the grandeur of Casablanca and the stunning Hassan II Mosque, the tour travels to the blue painted streets of Chefchaouen, one of Morocco’s most picturesque towns. In Fez, travellers discover one of the oldest cities in the world, known for its traditional crafts, markets and rich cultural history.

Marrakech offers a completely different atmosphere again, with remarkable architecture, lively markets and historic landmarks such as the Koutoubia Minaret and the Saadian Tombs.

The journey finishes with two relaxing nights in the coastal town of Essaouira, known for its Atlantic breezes, vibrant culture and excellent seafood.

Together, Egypt and Morocco offer a journey through two remarkable civilisations, filled with history, culture and unforgettable experiences.

The size and composition of the tour party from tour leaders Annie, tour guides, and the travellers was very good. All about the same age and compatibility amongst the tour party was excellent.
