WHAT OUR TRAVELERS SAY
- Thomas F.If all that the Ancient Egypt and the Nile Tour focused on was the Pyramids at Giza ... it would still be a GREAT tour as you would be viewing the only remaining structure of the Seven Ancient Wonders of the World. However there is so much more with Smithsonian Journeys! The Pyramids, Temples and Tombs are amazing works that makes you contemplate just how these magnificent structures were built thousands of years ago!
- Sara J.The trip to Egypt is a chance of a lifetime. The sites are amazing. I always felt safe. Our tour director was wonderful…
- Kenneth F.If you want to quench your thirst for knowledge along with a fascinating tour of historical places, Smithsonian tours are the answer.
- Jane F.I hadn’t realized the major role ancient Egypt played in world history. This trip was a fascinating - even magical - experience.
