CAIRO - 16 August 2017: Egypt was included in the Telegraph’s list of “20 incredible holidays in the river” as one the most amazing open air museums in the world, including the Nile cruise from Cairo to Luxor and Aswan.

The U.K. newspaper shed light on the historical nature present in Egypt in its temples, tombs and pyramids, all of which date back more than 5,000 years in history.

The report also stressed that the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) in the U.K. didn’t advise against visiting places like Luxor, Qena, and Aswan, pointing out that tourists can enjoy magnificent sights along the Nile River, as well as visit historical places such as the Valley of the Kings, Karnak temple, Abu Simbel and the ancient archaeological cities and preserved temples in Dendara, which is situated on the west bank of the Nile, about 5 km south of Qena.

The list also included cruises along the Danube River, which passes through multiple countries, including Hungary, Germany and Austria; the Chobe and Zambezi rivers in Africa; the Seine River in France; the Dnieper River in Russia; and the Rhine River, which passes through Switzerland, Germany, France, the Netherlands and Austria.
