Welcome to the most academically focused Egyptology Tours. These Egyptology Expeditions are designed for curious travelers. You will gain more than sightseeing. We focus on understanding the why and how behind monumental structures. All tours are led by our licensed, experienced Egyptologists. These journeys offer deep dives into history, hieroglyphics, and archaeology. We take you to sites often missed by standard itineraries. Prepare for an immersive, intellectual, and unforgettable experience into the heart of the pharaonic world.
Our commitment to expertise sets these Egyptology Tours apart. Every tour is guided by a local Egyptologist. This is often a university lecturer or a published researcher. Egyptologists do not just quote dates. They translate the intricate stories inscribed on temple walls and explain complex religious motivations. They share the latest archaeological discoveries. This level of insight is transformative. It turns a standard visit into a true, interactive Egyptology lecture at the source.
While our Egyptology Tours cover the essential icons—the Pyramids, Luxor, and Aswan—our itineraries dedicate significant time to the historically vital but less-frequented areas:
These are not quick photo stops. Our Egyptology Tours prioritize extended time at each monument, allowing for in-depth study and reflection. Experience:

Wonderful tour with the guide Hamada. I did not feel rushed at all. He explained a lot of facts about the city, the mosque, the water storage room, and also brought me to no-hassle shops. He picked a great place to eat and have Turkish coffee and a cold lemon
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
This week we had a great tour with Mohamed to the pyramids of Sakkara and Dahshur, as well as Memphis. He tailored the tour to our preferences, took a lot of time with us, and gave us detailed background information on everything. It was also great that he never tired
It was one of the best decisions we made to use this company for our Full-day trip to Wadi El Hitan and El Fayoom Oasis. I give them 10 stars.
Mohamed. I just want to thank you again for your kindness. You made our trip memorable. Give your family and the Egypt Fun Tours crew all my love and thank them again for me. Take care. Enjoy the season! Love. Linda
I had a 12 hour layover on my way to Dar es Salaam and wanted to take full advantage of my time in Cairo. After researching for many hours, I came across Egypt Fun Tours and emailed for more information. I received a prompt reply with full details of several
Hamada was incredible! So knowledgeable and kind. He had information about every item, street corner, and relic we looked at. Any questions we had, he had answers! He even made sure to give us tips while walking through the crowds so that we would feel more comfortable when being approached
Thank you Hamada for an incredible day! Thank you for the stories and the history, you are so knowledgeable and we didn’t feel rushed at all or like we missed out on things, will definitely be recommending this tour to everyone 🙂
We have just returned from a two week holiday in Cape Town. On the way out our airline schedule meant that we had a 15 hour stop in Cairo. We decided to arrange a tour of the city and after asking for quotes/itineraries we chose Egypt Fun Tours. This worked
On a recent trip, I had 8 hours from the time I landed in Cairo to when my next flight was scheduled to leave. Luckily, I arrived in the morning and left in the afternoon, so, not being one to sit around an airport for 8 hours, I visited the
