The Nile River is the lifeblood of Egypt. The country's fortunes have been molded throughout history by the annual flooding and receding of the river's waters, which leaves a thick coating of rich silt to stave off the encroaching desert. The vast pyramids of the pharaohs, as well as Egypt's arts, gastronomy, and culture attract tourists, who are the country's primary source of revenue. On Egypt vacation packages, a Nile cruise is paired with excursions to some of Egypt's most important archaeological sites.
