Cairo 12-Day Tours and Trips

We found this to be a fabulous experience. We learned so much from our guide Saad! There were many who worried about us traveling to this part of the world but we felt perfectly protected and safe.

This trip truly exceeded my expectations in every way. The itinerary was perfectly planned, covering all the highlights I had on my list—and even a few unexpected ones. I was lucky to meet an amazing group of fellow travelers, each bringing their own excitement and energy to the experience. We shared countless laughs, stories, and meals that created memories I’ll cherish forever. Our tour guide Mohsen was incredible—so knowledgeable and passionate about Egypt's history and culture. He brought each site to life, sharing fascinating stories and insights that made the experience unforgettable. His enthusiasm and warmth made the whole journey feel personal and engaging. Overall, it was the trip of a lifetime! I’d highly recommend this trip to anyone looking to explore Egypt in a fun, insightful, and hassle-free way.

Couldn’t recommend it enough! Our trip leader made the trip for us. He was so knowledgeable and passionate about Egypt’s history and did everything in his power to ensure we felt safe and comfortable. If you’re thinking about going…do it!

You will be up early and there are a lot of stairs. All of the sites are amazing and you won’t leave Egypt thinking you missed something. Do not recommend bringing American Express cards as they’re not widely accepted. Can easily get Egyptian Pounds at the airport and in some hotels

This tour was a deeply enriching journey, taking us through Greece’s temples, Turkey’s palaces, and Egypt’s ancient marvels. Each day was full of unique experiences, and the pace felt just right. The guides did a fantastic job explaining local culture and history, and the cruise added a relaxing layer, letting us see the scenery from a new vantage point.

My friend and I arrived at Cairo airport, after flying on Egypt Air from New York . We were met by Mohamad. He got our Visas and took us to a car and we were driven to Fairmont Nile city. The hotel was lovely. We were picked up later by our guide Ahmed , an Egyptologist, and driver we started our tour in Cairo by visiting the Great Pyramid, then on to Saqqara, a carpet making school. The next day we saw the Hanging Church, the market and we had a wonderful Egyptian lunch, then the Egyptian museum. The following day we flew to Luxor and met our next guide, another Egyptologist Saad, , who took us for our 5 days Nile cruise on the Minerva Cruise. Saad led us to all the sites from Luxor to Aswan . The ship had a wonderful crew, and all trips to the Temples and tombs were seamless. We took a fun hot air balloon ride in Luxor. The guides, the food, the hotels and flights were all perfect. We felt safe and cared for the whole trip.
