Jacqueline KennedyIn the 1960s the dramatic, ancient Pharaonic temple Abu Simbel was  threatened by the rising waters blocked by the new Aswan High Dam. First Lady Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy provided crucial support for the mammoth rescue project. Without her help, Abu Simbel might have been lost. Times change, leaders come and go, but some acts of support and generosity are remembered through the decades. First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy loved Egypt, and Egypt still loves her.

    • Our holiday in Egypt & Jordan was absolutely fantastic. Everything that you arranged went exactly as planned. Everybody we dealt with in both countries was both welcoming and very knowledgeable. Overall I would say that you exceeded our expectations on all levels and provided us with the holiday of a lifetime. We also thought it was very good value and would not hesitate to recommend your service to family and friends. Thank you once again.

      —Lynn & Mike
