Egypt Tours in January 2026

Excellent trip, fantastic sightseeing with a great group and an excellent guide! The pace was full on but everything worth it . The lunch with a local family, the visit of the school and the dinner with a nubian family gave it a special touch and the overnight train journey was really good fun. The only downside was the poor heating in some of the hotel/cruise ship rooms, bring a woolly jumper to sleep in if you travel in winter! Our guide was fantastic, extremely knowledgeable, fun, though when it was needed and managed always to accommodate some last minute wishes:

I had a fantastic time on this trip. Our Egyptologist, Alber, allowed my dreams of visiting Egypt to come true with the knowledge and enthusiasm he displayed. Jordan is definitely worth it too, Petra is a jaw-dropping experience!

I am glad we booked a guided tour for Egypt the history and knowledge passed onto us from our CEO Mo was outstanding and really made the tour worth while.

I loved the trip, our guide was incredibly knowledgeable. I really appreciated all of the help we received by Expat staff (meeting us at the airport, getting us our Visa and locating a bank to exchange currency.

You get a local Egyptologist who walk you through the history of Egypt. The transport was fine, on time and clean. The itinerary was the expected and the people are really nice.

I recently embarked on a birthday trip to Egypt organized by Expat Explore and I cannot express how truly exceptional this experience was. Covering almost the entirety of ancient Egypt in just 9 days, our journey was a perfect blend of cultural immersion and thrilling activities. Our cruise on the Nile river aboard a traditional felucca provided a unique and authentic experience. Exploring ancient temples, snorkeling in the Red Sea, and the highlight of my childhood dreams – going inside Tutankhamun's tomb – added an adventurous touch to the trip. A significant highlight of the tour was our remarkable tour leader, Mina. His profound knowledge and evident love for his country added depth to every historical site we visited. Beyond being an expert guide, he went above and beyond, offering valuable tips and even lending us cash when needed. His warmth and generosity created a welcoming atmosphere that contributed to our tour group feeling like a little family, perhaps due to us bonding overnight on the felucca – a shared laughter echoed through our journey. I've made friends for life, and we've already made plans to stay in touch and visit each other in our home countries. On the night of my birthday, Mina, our tour organizer, orchestrated a delightful surprise. The restaurant baked a cake, and the entire group joined in singing happy birthday. The thoughtful gift of a papyrus painting featuring my star sign and name in hieroglyphics added a personal touch to the celebration. While the trip was a dream come true, the only aspect I didn't plan well for was the intensity of the schedule. The packed itinerary left little room for relaxation. However, the overall experience, enriched by the amazing destinations and the wonderful people I encountered, surpassed any initial concerns about the pace. Thank you Expat Explore for crafting such a memorable and immersive travel experience. I cannot wait to explore more destinations with you soon :)
