Detailed Trip Description

Join us in the search for ancient Egypt and ancient Greece. Ancient Egypt still holds the world in thrall because of the impenetrable mysteriousness that continues to surround its culture, with its striking contrast of light and shade. Greece, to the brilliance of turquoise waters and the silvery hue of olives leaves, from the serenity of red roofed hamlets to the lively modern cities, today's Greece casts and inescapable spell over its visitors.
