3-day Aswan to Luxor Nile cruise with Abu Simbel, Edfu and Valley of the Kings, plus a hot air balloon sunrise flight.
“All activities were very nice, good tour guides although sometimes all was a bit rushed and schedules were quite tight. Special thanks to our guide Manal of the last full day, she has a lot of experience and she is an amazing guide!”
Private 3-day Siwa trip from Cairo or Giza with Great Sand Sea 4WD, salt lakes swimming, desert camp stars, and Siwa’s best landmarks.
“Where do I begin to describe such a life changing experience. This was hands down the best part of my entire trip and the tour guide Magdi is an absolute star! I traveled by myself but I’ve never felt safer! From the beginning of my pickup to the end I was met with absolute courtesy, enthusiasm and encouragement. Siwa is the most gorgeous part of Egypt for so many reasons, everyone needs to experience this, but specifically with this particular tour organizers.”
Three days in Siwa Oasis from Cairo, with salt lakes, Cleopatra’s Pool, hot springs camp, desert safari in the Great Sand Sea, and meals.
“We were lucky enough to have this tour booked with Luxury Tours Egypt. Mo Tolba was our tour leader, and Eslam Ali was our driver, and I can't say enough about both of them. Egyptians are the most friendly people we've ever met, but these two take hospitality to a whole nRead more”
Private 3-day Nile cruise from Luxor to Aswan with a private guide, top temples, Abu Simbel at dawn, and meals onboard.
“Our operator Marina provided great contents and ensured smooth communication. She also made it easy to connect by phone. Our guide Michael, with his extensive knowledge, gave us an excellent tour. Overall, it was a fulfilling and enjoyable experience.”
3 days 2 nights from Cairo to Bahariya Oasis and Egypt’s White Desert National Park, with 4x4 rides, hot springs, and stargazing camping.
“Do NOT do the 3 day/2 night tour! Tour provider completely switched the itinerary without any choice. In a group of 13 guests, all but 2 of us were doing the 2 day/1 night tour, so the tour provider lumped us into the 1 night group. That means all the sites were COMPLETELY RUSHED AND PACKED vs having the spaced out itinerary that was advertised. On the first day each stop is 5-15 minutes each because there is little time before setting up camp for sunset - essentially you just get out of the car to take a picture and are rushed out and onto the next stop. No time…”
Private 3-day Cairo and Alexandria highlights with pyramids, Egyptian Museum, Nile felucca, camel ride, Alexandria sights, and included lunches.
“The guide and driver (Mary and Housam) were great, the vehicle was clean and comfortable. The tour was also wonderful. Two issues came up which were not the fault of the guide or driver. 1) The Viator site presented this as an “all iRead more”
3 days of Cairo, Giza and Alexandria with pyramids, museum, Old Cairo churches, Alexandria ruins, and a Nile dinner cruise.
“This tour is great for a solo trip! More than that, this is a private tour and you get to learn all the Egypt ancient history from the tourguide. My tourguide - Mariam and Manal, are very knowledgable and told me some things “outside of the box” about Egypt history throughout Read more”
Cairo to Siwa Oasis in 3 days: El Alamein WWII museum, desert 4x4 safari, Cleopatra’s Spring, salt lakes, Shali city, camp BBQ.
“Excellent tour with great activities and very good organization. Special thanks to our guide Ahmed who contributed to making the experience smooth and fun. Definitely recommended!”
Hurghada 3-day PADI Open Water scuba course in Egypt’s Red Sea: gear, transfers, and two training sessions daily for beginners.
“Be aware that you have to pay additional 115€ to get the PADI certificate. There was no lunch for all of the 3 days (nothing was prepared or offered). On the last day the taxi brought me to the wrong place (I almost got registered to a boat dive) but got help to get to the right place. The PADI E-Learning access, which is needed contains the theoretical Exam, was only given after day 1. It should take at least 10 hours (if done correctly, reading and listening to all material) and I had to rush to all the questions and skip most of the material in order to be…”
Fly Cairo to Luxor, sail to Aswan on a Nile cruise, add a sunrise hot-air balloon, and hit top temples plus Abu Simbel.
“Everything was well organized. We count with proper comunication with the travel agency. We are really happy with nice tours and the guides we met during our trip (Khaled, Amhed, Mohamed and his father)”

3-day private Siwa Oasis trip from Cairo with desert 4x4 safari, salt lakes, hot springs, Oracle Temple, and local food, all inclusive.
“Siwa was very peaceful, beautiful, and a good experience. Mohammed was very responsive and organized. The bus ride was fine, just make sure to bring small change with you for when you stop at rest stops in case you need bathroom. The hotel was nice.”
3-day Aswan to Luxor Nile cruise with guided visits to Philae, Edfu, Kom Ombo, Valley of the Kings, Karnak, and Luxor Temple.
“Great experiencie! Ahmed was a superb guide with a great knowledge about all the temples and sites. The boat also exceed expectations - Good food, great cabin space and mattress. I would recommend it.”
4 days Cairo to Aswan: flights, sunrise hot-air balloon, Egyptologist-led Nile cruise, Edfu, Kom Ombo, Abu Simbel, full board pickup.
“Nice Tours arranged everything smoothly. The flight, cruise, hotel and tour guides are good. We had a great experience.”
3-day Luxor to Aswan Nile cruise with VIP hot-air balloon, pro Egyptologist, Karnak to Abu Simbel, and 5-star ship comfort.
“We booked a 3-day cruise trip in Egypt that included a balloon ride to see the sunset. Because we were placed in the third wave, we waited on the ground until sunset was already over. After landing, a guide requested additional payment for videos/photos. We paid and were told the files would be sent shortly, but even after one month we have not received anything, despite following up with the tour guides. Based on this experience, I cannot recommend this operator.”
3-day Siwa escape from Cairo with 4WD desert safari, cold lake and hot spring swims, Shali and Amun Temple history, and starry dinners.
“The activities were spectacular! We did the town history tour, the desert safari (my favourite!) and the salt lakes. Our guide took us to a lovely spot to catch the sunset and sip on the best ever mango smoothies.”
Temples, reef, sand or city — pick the shape of the day and go.
