Alexandria - centre of learning in the ancient world. The ideal starting point of a voyage that explores the world of the Pharaohs and uncovers a 'lost city' of the Nabataeans! Marvel at a wonder of the modern world - the Suez Canal. Sinai's inhospitable desert landscape leads to a remote and magnetic site of Christianity. Where desert meets sea the gentle ebb and low of warm Red Sea waters mirrors the unhurried pace of life of nomadic Bedouin.
