Egypt has been in the news since before the time of the Pharaohs. But [Abercrombie & Kent's Egypt: A Moment in History](http://www.abercrombiekent.com/travel-destinations/middle-east-luxury-travel/egypt/special.cfm) lets you witness it firsthand. Without the usual crowds, you'll visit the Pyramids, the Sphinx, the Museum of Antiquities, and the temples along the Nile, and you'll take a four-day Nile cruise from Luxor to Aswan, at savings which are themselves historic. _From $1,725._
