Many people think you need weeks to see Egypt. However, a 4-day plan offers several benefits.
First, you can focus on the “Big Two” locations: Cairo and Luxor. These cities contain the vast majority of Egypt’s most famous sites. Second, it is a very cost-effective way to travel. You get the maximum “bucket list” impact for a smaller investment. Finally, it serves as a perfect introduction. Many of our guests use a 4-day trip to decide which areas they want to explore more deeply on their next visit.
Your journey begins in Cairo. After we meet you at the airport and help with your bags, you can settle into your hotel.
Evening: We recommend a Nile River Dinner Cruise. You will enjoy traditional food while watching belly dancing and “Tannoura” whirling dervish shows. It is a great way to wake up your senses to the Egyptian culture.
This day is dedicated to the legends of the Old Kingdom.
To see the most in 4 days, we take a morning flight to Luxor.
Your final day covers the best of the city before you head home.
It is possible, but very difficult. You would have to skip Alexandria or some sites in Cairo. We recommend saving Abu Simbel for our 6-day or 10-day tours.
Yes. You will see the Pyramids, the Sphinx, the Egyptian Museum, and the Valley of the Kings. These are the four most important sites in the country.
October, November, and March are perfect. The weather is mild, which allows you to move quickly between sites without getting too hot.

My day trip to Cairo was brilliant, and close to the best one-day experience of my life. Hani was an amazing ambassador for his city and country; his wealth of knowledge, courtesy, and good humour was awesome. The itinerary was perfect, I visited most of the famous landmarks as well
