Egypt Shore Excursions: Gateways to Ancient Marvels

Cruising the majestic waters of the Mediterranean opens up an experience for the traveler on Egypt shore excursions. These cruise excursions at Egypt’s ports offer visitors a closer look at the country’s rich history, vibrant culture, and beautiful landscapes. Despite Safaga, Alexandria, Port Said, or El Sokhna being your ports; however, the cities of Cairo, Alexandria, Luxor, and Aswan have loads of happenings in store for you.

Treasures of Cairo Onboard

Located near Port Said, Cairo is a shore excursion and a favorite destination for quick trips. A host of probably some of the most famous landmarks in the world, Cairo is the place to be. Above all, the Pyramids Complex in Giza offers visitors the chance to view the Great Pyramid of Khufu up close. It is a true wonder of ancient engineering.

Additionally, not too far away, the Cairo Citadel boasts stunning views of the city and an orientation to this country’s Islamic architecture. Moreover, a tour of the Khan El Khalili Bazaar takes guests deep into the heart of the local culture. They will explore a bustling marketplace filled with stalls displaying a profusion of crafts, spices, and souvenirs. Alexandria, Port Said, Safaga, and Sokhna shore excursions feature Cairo.

Luxor: The World’s Greatest Open-Air Museum

Certainly, shore excursion visitors at Safaga Port who trek to Luxor enjoy an experience that’s truly out of this world. People call Luxor the greatest open-air museum in the world, and for reasons, among them, the huge temple complex of Karnak is the most immense religious structure ever built, while the Valley of the Kings conceals beneath the rock the tombs of the ancient pharaohs. In addition, the Temple of Hatshepsut narrates about one of the most powerful female rulers of Egypt. It reflects perfect architecture and historical importance.

Sea-Side Charms: Alexandria and Port Said

Visitors on Alexandria port shore excursions will enjoy the rich history and charm of the Mediterranean. They can visit the Catacombs, one of the most intriguing underground burial sites. Alternatively, they can explore the Qaitbey Citadel, which offers a lovely view of the coastline.

In addition, visitors may enjoy Suez Canal tours or a visit to the local markets while on a Port Said port call for a somewhat quirky look at life in this bustling port city.

Aswan: The Gem of the South

Most of the cruises that stop at Egyptian ports usually have multiple days on the shores of Egypt, allowing them to see deeper locations such as Aswan. It is a place to which trips from Egyptian ports could reach. Additionally, they can explore Abu Simbel temples from Aswan. People regard Ramses II’s great temples as one of the wonders of ancient architecture and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Serene surroundings make Aswan well-known for rides on felucca boats on the Nile. It’s a tranquil escape from the noise of metropolises.

In short, with numerous shore excursions around Egypt, a traveler is more than likely to make certain moments memorable while touring the powers of this ancient land. Whether it’s Cairo’s pyramids, Luxor’s temples, or Alexandria’s coasts, each excursion reveals something unique. These experiences highlight different aspects of Egypt’s heritage. From historical and cultural sites to beautiful landscapes, Egypt’s ports offer special adventures.

Alexandria, Egypt’s second-largest city, serves as a vibrant gateway to the country’s history and culture. Shore excursions from Alexandria Port offer trips to iconic sites like CairoLuxor, and the Giza Pyramids, creating unforgettable memories for cruise guests.

Amazing tour to the pyramids of Sakkara and Dahshur

January 1, 2025

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 of taking the time to answer our many questions.

You can definitely tell that he has studied Egyptology as he has a very deep understanding of the subject and can explain everything well. He also speaks perfect English and is really good driver.

We would definitely book a tour with him again in a heartbeat and would recommend him to anyone. 🙂

Amazing Egypt Fun Tours

Highly Recommend Egypt Fun Tours!

Several weeks ago, I reached out to Egypt Fun Tours regarding a 9-hour layover in Cairo. From the very beginning, Hani Ahmed was responsive and professional, quickly providing a well-organized itinerary tailored to our limited time. The itinerary included a visit to the pyramids, other historical sites, a delicious dinner, and even a quick stop for souvenir shopping.

Upon arrival, Gilman efficiently assisted us in obtaining our day tourist visas (note: $25 per person in cash). She then introduced us to our guide, Mydo, who was absolutely phenomenal! Mydo’s knowledge, friendly demeanor, and ability to adjust the tour to our pace made the experience unforgettable.

We returned to the airport with plenty of time to relax before our flight. The entire experience was smooth, stress-free, and incredibly memorable. Egypt Fun Tours offers reasonable prices for a private, customized experience that truly exceeds expectations. Thank you, Egypt Fun Tours! We will definitely use your services again in the future.

Alexandria! Wow!

November 7, 2024

Muhammad is the best! He showed me a world I never thought possible! The tombs in Alexandria by far was my favorite! I never knew there was a place on earth that contained both Greek and Egyptian carvings in the same tombs! The history and culture of Egypt is so fascinating! I highly recommend booking with Muhammad!

Tour of Cairo

Despite a late start due to car trouble, Mohamed more than made up for it with his incredible knowledge and dedication. His explanations were detailed and thoughtful, and he went above and beyond to make sure we had a great experience. A memorable and informative tour, thanks to Mohamed’s hard work!

AMAZING TOUR, SOLO TRAVELER.

October 12, 2024

I am a California woman who traveled to Egypt alone and thanks to Egypt Fun Tours I had a great time. Hani, Mohammed, Kamal and David (my driver) were very professional and very knowledgeable, I appreciate how respectful they were and how protective they were with me.

They show me everything I wanted to see in Cairo and nearby places like Saqqara, Memphis, etc. Thanks to them I had a great time in Egypt, they were so so helpful than on my second day they helped me to move from my hotel in Giza to the Steigenberger hotel in downtown Cairo.

The tour price is super good includes a guide (expert in the field) a driver, lunch and drinks, they took me to amazing places for lunch, the food was super super delicious, for a foodie like me that was a highlight. We went out fo the tourist traps and I got to see the Cairo that if you are in a bus tour you will never get to see.

This tour is personalized for each person depending of what you want to see and do, I absolutely love it.

I used WhatsApp to communicate with Hani and arranged all my tours, Hani was super super nice since the moment I contacted him and explained him what I wanted to do and see.

Hani and his group mesmerized me with the tours they put together, this is a memory I will keep for lifetime.

I had only good things to say about them and I highly recommend them.

I did visit the pyramids in Giza, downtown Cairo, new Cairo, several museums, Coptic Cairo and Muslim Cairo with them and I learned a lot from them, I felt like they were family to me and it was EXCELLENT, EXCELLENT.

If I go back to Egypt I will hire them again without hesitation.

David I take my hat off for you because I have NO IDEA how you can drive in crazy Cairo, thanks to all of you for making this lady’s dream a reality.
