The World According to Milt: Let's travel back in time to ancient Egypt!

The World According to Milt: Let's travel back in time to ancient Egypt!

Let's travel back in time to ancient Egypt!

Anyone who knows me more than five minutes, knows I'm totally enamored with ancient Egypt. I go there just about every year and stay two or three weeks in this tiny farming village on the Nile Delta with my friend, Hamdy Nossair. Hamdy is an Egyptian native and archeologist who has lived in the U.S. for 25 years. He also has a tour business in Orlando and specializes in -- no surprise -- Egypt.

Well, guess what? We got together and organized a trip to ancient Egypt for a select group of travelers - people who would want to go to Egypt with Hamdy and me! This 11-day trip of a lifetime will see IN PERSON everything you have ever heard or seen about ancient Egypt -- Great Pyramids, Sphinx, King Tut's treasures and his tomb, the mummy of Ramses the Great, Valley of the Kings, Aswan Dam, Egyptian Museum, and much more. We will be staying in five-star hotels and enjoy a five day Nile cruise, where you can see farmers working in the fields as they did 5,000 years ago. The price is super reasonable and includes airfare from New York to Cairo, all hotels, tours, transportation, most meals, tour guides, the Nile cruise and a highlight of the trip -- a day in the tiny farming village where I go every year. Have tea with the farmers and their wives and enjoy a lunch prepared by Hamdy's family. This is NOT a tourist destination -- this is the REAL Egypt!
