The Egypt Deluxe Egypt Eco-Luxury Adventure is the perfect trip in which to cleanse body and soul, combining the best of Cairo with the most unique of eco-lodge luxury. We begin with the sensory overload that is the country’s capital city, exploring the antiquities on display at the Egyptian Museum and, of course, partaking in that most Egyptian of traditions—shopping and bartering in the mysterious souks of the Khan el-Khalil Bazaar.

Here we swim in natural hot spas, once—so legend has it—the bathing spot of Queen Cleopatra, explore the local area, dine on locally grown organic food, and—quite simply—allow this very special area to gently wash away the stresses of everyday modern life.
