About Egypt

Egypt sits at the northeastern corner of Africa, with the Sinai Peninsula extending into Asia, making it one of the few transcontinental countries in the world. Around 95% of the country is desert, and nearly all of its population is concentrated in the Nile Valley and Delta, which together make up only a small fraction of the country's total land area — a concentration that has held since the pharaohs, and one reason the Nile still feels like the country's central nervous system rather than just a river.

The Pyramids of Giza and the Great Sphinx, still standing at the edge of Cairo, are around 4,500 years old, and the temple complexes at Luxor, Karnak, and Abu Simbel line a stretch of the Nile that pharaohs sailed more than three millennia ago. Modern Cairo, home to more than 20 million people in its greater metropolitan area, layers Islamic-era mosques and medieval markets over this ancient backdrop, while the Suez Canal — opened in 1869 and linking the Mediterranean to the Red Sea — remains one of the world's most important shipping routes.

Voyzo runs private, driver-led trips across Egypt shaped around what you actually want to see, from compact Cairo-and-Luxor introductions to two-week routes pairing a genuine Nile cruise with Red Sea beach time or the Western Desert oases of Siwa and Bahariya.

Plan Your Visit

Know Before You Go — Egypt

Visa & Entry

Most visitors can get an Egyptian e-visa online in advance, or a visa on arrival at major airports, valid for a single entry of up to 30 days. Requirements vary by nationality, so confirm current options before you fly.

Getting Around

Cairo, Luxor, and Aswan are spread across a country over 1,000 km long, so most itineraries combine road transfers with either a domestic flight or a multi-day Nile cruise between Luxor and Aswan.

Language

Arabic is the official language. English is widely spoken in tourism, hospitality, and by guides at major sites, though less so in smaller towns and rural areas.

Money & Tipping

The Egyptian pound (EGP) is the local currency. Tipping (baksheesh) is customary and genuinely expected throughout the country, well beyond restaurants — small bills are useful for guides, drivers, and site attendants.

What to Pack

Modest dress is expected at mosques and religious sites — shoulders and knees covered. Otherwise pack light, breathable clothing for daytime heat, plus a layer for cool desert nights and heavily air-conditioned interiors.

Safety & Travel Areas

The main tourist circuit — Cairo, Luxor, Aswan, the Red Sea resorts — sees heavy tourism and a significant security presence. Some border areas, including parts of the Sinai interior away from Sharm el-Sheikh, carry travel advisories; standard itineraries don't go near them.

Yes, for most itineraries — it's a genuine, multi-day cruise-ship segment between Luxor and Aswan with its own crew and dining, and it covers a stretch of temples and riverside scenery that's hard to see as efficiently by road.
Light, breathable clothing generally works, but shoulders and knees should be covered at mosques and other religious sites. A light layer is also useful for cool desert evenings and strongly air-conditioned interiors.
