From the Valley of the Kings in Egypt to the ancient city of Baalbek in Lebanon and Jerusalem's Old City, each cultural cruise will take you on an unforgettable voyage. All journeys are accompanied by the finest lecturers, visiting the major and some of the less visited - but no less remarkable - archaeological sites. As some of the destinations - such as the Nabatean city of Petra in Jordan - are located away from the coast, you have the opportunity to combine your cruise with overland travel through stunning desert scenery.
