FAQ

Are standard entrance tickets included?

The tour price includes all standard admission tickets required for the visits and activities listed in this itinerary. Optional visits and special-access upgrades outside the listed itinerary cost extra.

Are internal flights included?

Domestic and international airline tickets are not included. Flights shown in the itinerary are not included in the price; we are happy to help you book them. Airport transfers in the inclusions list are part of the price.

What standard are the hotels and the cruise ship?

The itinerary is normally quoted on five-star hotels and a five-star Nile cruise. We name the exact properties in your written proposal rather than saying "or similar", and we can quote four-star or deluxe alternatives if you prefer a different budget.

I am travelling alone. Is there a single supplement?

Yes, hotels and cruise ships charge for a single room or cabin, so a solo traveller pays more per person than someone sharing. Tell us at the enquiry stage and we will quote the supplement openly and look for boats with reduced single rates on your dates.

How much walking should I expect on a 6 Day itinerary?

Expect two to four hours on your feet on sightseeing days, often on sand, gravel and tomb staircases. Vehicles park as close to entrances as site rules allow, and your guide can offer a ground-level alternative at most sites. Tell us about mobility limits before booking and the plan is adjusted in advance.

I am travelling with children. Do they pay the full price?

Child rates depend on age, room occupancy and the hotel or cruise policy. Send each child age for a confirmed quote.

Is the price per person or for the whole group?

On this Egypt package the published rate is $2,303 for one traveller, $1,603 each for two, and $1,528 each from three people upward. All prices on this page are in US dollars per person, and the rate drops as the group grows because the vehicle, guide and driver are shared across more travellers. Holiday departures over Christmas, New Year and Easter are quoted separately as they carry a supplement.

How do I book this tour?

Send your date, group size, pickup point and preferred route for this 6-day Egypt package by WhatsApp or email. We reply with availability and a clear private proposal, starting from the $1,528 shown on this page.
