Two of the world’s greatest ancient civilisations in one magnificent 12-day tour. Egypt’s Pyramids, the Nile, and the Valley of the Kings — then Turkey’s imperial Istanbul, the surreal fairy chimneys of Cappadocia with a sunrise hot air balloon, the Roman ruins of Ephesus, and the cotton-white terraces of Pamukkale. A journey through 5,000 years of human history.
