Egypt: 5-Day Highlights of Cairo & Luxor

Your own guide, your own vehicle, and an itinerary shaped entirely around you.

5 Days / 4 Nights Up to 25 Guests Free Itinerary Changes Local Expert Guide

About This Tour

A compact five-day introduction to Egypt's essentials — the Giza Plateau, the Egyptian Museum, Islamic and Coptic Cairo, and Luxor's temples and tombs, with a short domestic flight between the two cities. This trip stays entirely within Egypt. It doesn't include a Nile cruise on the base itinerary — an optional Cairo Nile Dinner Cruise & Show is offered as an add-on rather than a multi-day sailing.
