‘Nile River of the Gods’, an exploration of the Nile, its history and wildlife, is both a journey of discovery from the mountains of Central Africa to the teeming Egyptian Delta, and a voyage through time from the days of the earliest Pharaohs to the present. The life of the great river , depicted on the walls of ancient Egyptian tombs, endures in the customs of the peoples of the Nile. See how they have lived for millennia in cultural equilibrium with the river and its wildlife.
