We trusted EgyVacations for our trip to Egypt… They made our trip anxiety free, they solve every problem from our arrival to the airport till our departure.
They helped me plan my day and arranged for an Egyptologist and driver to take me to all these places.
Thanks to well organised sightseeing and tour guide Ahmed who was professional and pleasant.
You talk to a travel consultant, they build your trip, and you only confirm when the itinerary is right.
Your travel month, group size and what you'd like to see. Two minutes on the form, or a message on WhatsApp.
A consultant writes your day-by-day plan with hotels, guides and transfers, priced in your currency. Free, and yours to keep.
Adjust it as many times as you like. Nothing is booked and nothing is charged until you say the itinerary is right.
You're met at the airport, and your consultant stays reachable 24/7 for the whole trip — the same person, not a call centre.
Pick a question on the left. We answer it the way we would answer it on the phone — with the numbers, and with what we would actually do.
The comfortable half of the year runs October to April: 20–28 °C in Luxor and Aswan, which is what open-deck sailing and three hours inside a temple actually require.
Our tip
Book three to four months out for November to February. For a dahabiya, make it four — they carry twelve people and the good cabins go first.
Most nationalities — US, UK, EU and Australian included — get a 30-day tourist visa on arrival, or online as an e-Visa before they fly. Canadian citizens need a visa from an Egyptian embassy or consulate before travelling.
Our tip
Carry the $36 in cash. The visa window at Cairo takes dollars and gives change in Egyptian pounds, and the card machine is not always working.
Hotels, cruisers and restaurants take Visa and Mastercard. Markets, tips and small cafés are cash. We quote in US dollars and can invoice in EUR, GBP or AUD.
Our tip
Change a little at the airport and the rest at your hotel. Street exchange offices quote well and pay badly.
Light cotton for the days, one layer for the evenings, and shoes you can walk a temple in. Everything else you can buy here for less than you paid at home.
Our tip
Leave room in the case. Cotton, spices and a hand-made galabeya cost a fraction of the airport price in Khan El Khalili, and your guide will tell you the real one.
Cairo to Luxor is an hour by air and ten by road, so almost every itinerary flies it. Between Luxor and Aswan the river is the road, and your room moves with you.
Our tip
Sail Luxor to Aswan rather than the reverse if you can choose. You go upstream against the current, which means slower, longer afternoons on deck.
January is one of Egypt's best months for sightseeing — and one of its…

Almost every first visit is built on the same spine — the Giza plateau and the Grand Egyptian Museum, then Luxor and Aswan either by Nile cruise or by road. What separates the routes on this page is not which sites you see but how much air sits between them. A four or five-day short break covers Cairo and one southern city and asks you to move every morning. Eight days is the one most people end up on: Cairo, a four-night cruise, and no day that starts before six. Ten and over is where Abu Simbel, the Red Sea or a second country stop being a stretch.
Every tour on this page is private unless the card says otherwise — your party, your guide, your vehicle. That is not a premium tier here, it is the default, and it is why a day can be rewritten the night before. A cruise is the exception worth understanding: you have a private guide for the excursions, but the ship, the sailing times and the dining room are shared with everyone else on board.
Prices here are per person sharing a double room, and they carry entrance fees, transfers, guides and taxes inside the number, plus domestic flights where the itinerary says so. International flights, your visa, tips and anything you order yourself sit outside it and are named in writing before you commit. Nothing is charged until you say the itinerary is right; a deposit as low as 30% confirms the booking and the balance is due two days before you arrive — 50% over Christmas, New Year and Easter.
October to April is the comfortable half of the year: 20–28 °C in Luxor and Aswan, which is what three hours inside a temple actually requires. November to February is peak and the cruise ships fill three to four months out, so a date held in September is a very different price from the same date held in November. March and April keep the weather and lose the queues. June to August runs at a real discount, with excursions moved to dawn and the afternoon given back to the pool.
Under-twos travel free, children aged 2–5 pay 25% and children aged 6–11 pay 50% of the adult tour cost when sharing the parents' room. Because the tours here are private, a day can be shortened, a museum swapped for a felucca, or a rest morning added without asking anyone else's permission. We also run wheelchair-accessible itineraries with vehicles and sites chosen for step-free access.

Ask on WhatsApp All general travel FAQsEach Egypt tour includes what its itinerary lists: a licensed Egyptologist guide, a private vehicle with driver, hotels or a Nile cruise cabin, internal transfers, the entrance fees named in the programme and meals as specified. Domestic flights are included where the itinerary says so. International flights are not included, but we can help you book them.
Our Egypt tours on this page start from $1,060 per person for the 5 Days Cairo and Luxor Private Tour Package. Trips that add Aswan and Abu Simbel or a Nile cruise cost more, for example the 7 Days Cairo and Nile Cruise Tour Package from $1,620. The final price depends on the season, the hotel level and how many of you travel together, and your quote lists everything that is included.
Five days covers Cairo and one southern city, usually Luxor, at a brisk pace. Seven to eight days is the sweet spot for Cairo plus a Nile cruise between Luxor and Aswan without wasted mornings. Ten to twelve days lets you add Abu Simbel, the Red Sea or Alexandria without rushing. With less than five days, stay in Cairo and see it properly.
Choose by time and style. Five days suits Cairo and Luxor; six days adds Aswan and Abu Simbel; seven days gives you Cairo with a Nile cruise, either on a cruise ship or a smaller dahabiya. If comfort matters most, the luxury packages use higher-category hotels and ships. Tell us your dates and interests and a consultant will recommend the best fit, or adjust any package for you.
They are private by default: your party, your own Egyptologist guide, your vehicle and your pace, with no strangers joining. A tour page says so if a trip runs differently. Travelling privately means the same guide and driver look after you from arrival to departure, and the day can be shaped around you rather than a group timetable.
Mid-October to April is the best time for most Egypt tours: Luxor and Aswan sit around 20 to 28°C, which suits walking temples and sitting on a sun deck. It is also the busiest season, so book 2 to 3 months ahead; Christmas and New Year fill first. May to September is hot, especially in the south, but there are fewer visitors, lower prices and sightseeing moves to the early morning.
Choose four nights if your dates allow. Both cover the same temples between Luxor and Aswan, but three nights squeezes both banks of Luxor into a single day, which is long in the heat. Four nights gives each bank its own day and adds a relaxed evening on the river.
It depends on whether you want facilities or quiet. A cruise ship is larger, with a pool, a full restaurant and a fixed schedule. A dahabiya takes up to 20 guests, sails partly by wind and moors at villages the big ships pass by. Both visit the main temples between Luxor and Aswan, and our 7 Days Cairo and Dahabiya Nile Cruise Tour Package starts from $1,700.
Yes. Abu Simbel is the site travellers most often say they would have regretted skipping. It is reached from Aswan by an early-morning road trip or a short flight and fits into the Aswan part of a tour; our 6 Days Cairo, Luxor and Aswan with Abu Simbel Tour Package starts from $1,410. Ask for it when you enquire, so it is quoted with the rest of your trip.
Booking is by enquiry, not online checkout. Send us your dates and a consultant replies, usually within a few hours on WhatsApp or by email, with a day-by-day plan and full price. A deposit as low as 30% confirms the booking (50% over Christmas, New Year and Easter), and the balance is due two days before arrival or in cash on arrival. We accept bank transfer, a secure payment link, PayPal and cash.
No booking engine, no card details, no pressure. A travel consultant reads your message, builds a day-by-day plan around your dates, and sends it back with a price.
