Ancient Egyptians established a magnificent civilisation along the fertile Nile Valley from the Alexandria delta, with its fine Ottoman architecture, to the upper Nile Valley where elegant river boats and graceful feluccas sail through history past splendid temples at Karnak, Kom Ombo and Edfu. In the capital, Cairo, Tutankhamun silently observes visitors to the splendid Egyptian Museum, whilst nearby the vast Great Pyramids of Giza tower over the regal sphinx. Beyond the valley, divers flock to the coral of the Red Sea, for some of the best diving in the world.
