Overview

This Egypt classic tour brings together the three experiences most travellers come for: the monuments of Cairo, a Nile cruise between Aswan and Luxor, and a few easy days on the Red Sea beach in Hurghada. Over 11 days and 10 nights you travel with private transfers, an English-speaking Egyptologist guide and entrance fees already arranged, so you can enjoy the trip instead of planning it.

What the Egypt classic tour covers

  • Cairo (3 nights): the Giza Pyramids, the Sphinx and the Valley Temple, Sakkara with the Step Pyramid of Djoser, Memphis, the Egyptian Museum with the treasures of Tutankhamun, and the old bazaar of Khan El Khalili.
  • Sleeper train to Aswan (1 night): dinner and breakfast are served on board.
  • 5-star Nile cruise (3 nights, full board): the High Dam, Philae Temple and the Unfinished Obelisk in Aswan, then sailing north past Kom Ombo and Edfu to the temples of Karnak, Luxor and the Valley of the Kings.
  • Hurghada (3 nights, all inclusive): free time for swimming, snorkelling or simply relaxing at a 4-star resort before the road transfer back to Cairo.

Who this tour suits

It is a good first trip to Egypt: history-heavy days are balanced by a slower cruise and a beach finish. Cairo sightseeing is private, while cruise excursions are shared with other guests on board. Single travellers can book with a single supplement, and group discounts are available.
