Many vacations promise to be the “trip of a lifetime.” But few can deliver like the “Treasures of Egypt,” a 12-day tour with the Adventure First Travel Club of First Community Bank. This journey into Ancient Egyptian history will begin Friday, January 23, 2026, and return on Tuesday, February 3.
Retrace the steps of the pharaohs in ancient Egypt as you:
• Begin your tour in Cairo, a modern megalopolis with an intriguing past, to learn about Egypt’s ancient power struggles and dynasties;
• Stand in awe before the iconic Great Sphinx and the Pyramids of Giza – one of the Seven Ancient Wonders of the World;
• Discover the Valley of the Kings in Luxor, and view the tombs of the Kings Tutankhamun and Ramses VI;
• Embark on a seven-night cruise to discover the secrets of the Nile, the world’s longest river;
• Experience freshly prepared traditional local cuisine each night on your Nile cruise;
• Explore the 4,000-year-old religious complex of the Karnak Temple, part of the monumental city of Thebes;
• Travel by boat to a sanctuary island to view the Philae Temple, known as the Jewel of the Nile, and was dedicated to the goddess Isis;
• View the Nile Valley aboard a felucca (wooden sailboat) during a scenic boat ride in Aswan;
• Get a first-hand introduction into how Egyptian cuisine is prepared during a cooking demonstration; and
• Dress in traditional Egyptian garments during a traditional “galabeya” party for a night of entertainment and cultural immersion.
Follow the allure of the Nile, uncover complex legends, and venture thousands of years into the past as you experience the “Treasures of Egypt” with the Adventure First Travel Club in 2026.
