Egypt’s Nile, Alexandria, and Luxor

Published 2021-04-15
Rick Steves' Europe Travel Guide © 2020 | Exploring the Nile Valley from north to south, we see the highlights of Egypt. In the fabled city of Alexandria, we venture through a market wonderland, smoke a shisha, and stroll a Mediterranean promenade. In Luxor, we explore the pharaohs’ tombs and temples before sailing on a timeless felucca. Then we kick back on a riverboat cruise, enjoying iconic views of palm trees, minarets, and rustic villages. Our finale: Ramesses II's magnificent temple at Abu Simbel. #ricksteves #egypt #luxor

    No trip is complete without watching Rick Steve's travel documentries. Each word that he says has a meaning & he doesn't say anything that doesn't have a meaning. It's like reading a textbook. Everytime you watch his travel documentry again, you find new things which you had missed grasping last time.

    While many countries in Africa have the Nile running through it, Egypt is where its most beautiful and the history can not be compared.
  • Great Video, I love Egypt and Egyptians.. I worked with them for 28 years..and great people to work with.. Love from Pune, India..

    I've wanted to go to Egypt since I read Agatha Christie's Death on the Nile, many years ago. Due to Covid-19, and ongoing lockdowns, we are not allowed to make overseas trips at present, but one day I'll get there.

  • Love to see Rick Steeves after a long gap. You are still energetic and cheerful. Keep it up so that we never miss you any longer ❤️❤️❤️👍

    The footage of the Fallucca looks like the nile at Aswan - it’s a very picturesque place.. I feel like I’ve left my heart at the banks of the nile here, the huge desert dunes on the edges of the river, the dark stones emerging from the river, the white sails of the boats. I wish to visit this place again…

    Egypt is in my bucket list. I'm like 95% sure I'm going there within the next 2 years. This video has been useful to plan my future trip. Can't wait for the second part!

    Valley of the Kings..... Pyramids were looted. And Pharoahs were waking up in heaven with absolutely nothing. Much love from Kenya 🇰🇪🇰🇪 Mr. Rick Steve.
