Rick Steves' Europe (2000)

Episode Overview

Journeying along the Nile Valley from its northern to southern regions reveals the wonders of Egypt. In the legendary city of Alexandria, we immerse ourselves in a vibrant market, savor shisha, and take a leisurely walk along the Mediterranean promenade. In Luxor, we delve into the tombs and temples of the pharaohs, followed by a serene sail on a traditional felucca. We then relax on a riverboat cruise, soaking in picturesque sights of palm trees, minarets, and charming villages. Our grand finale is the awe-inspiring temple of Ramses II at Abu Simbel.
