Day 1: Monday – Esna:

You will be welcomed and assisted by your Egypt Fun Tours tour manager upon arrival at Luxor airport / Luxor train station, and then taken on a tour of Esna by your Egyptologist tour guide. Esna is well known for the tiny old Temple of Khnum, which stands 9 meters below street level and is a lively market village. Your journey will begin with a short walk to the temple, followed by a tour through shops lined with gorgeous fabrics and other unusual items.
Onboard your Nile Dahabiya boat, and spend the night at Esna.

Lunch and Dinner are included.

Day 2: Tuesday – El Kab & Edfu:

We leisurely cruise en route to El Kab, on the Nile’s East bank, which was once the capital of Southern Egypt and is now home to the temple of Nekhbet, as well as a row of magnificent ornate tombs cut into the mountainside. After docking, you’ll take a lovely stroll through a tiny fishermen’s town to the necropolis. The boat will arrive at Edfu in the afternoon, where there is a Greco-Roman temple devoted to the deity Horus. This is one of the most well-preserved Egyptian temples. You will be transported to the temple by horse and carriage through the bustling city streets. You’ll set sail for a lovely island after returning to the boat.
Meals are provided on a full-board basis.

Day 3: Wednesday – Sail & Relax:

This is a river-focused day: you’ll set sail right after an optional morning stroll and brunch. You’ll stop on an island for a stroll or a dip in the Nile in the afternoon. As darkness falls, a trek into the desert through a valley strewn with rocks carved with ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs and stone-age inscriptions may be possible. These pictures mark the start of the briefest trail through the desert to Libya (28 days in ancient times). The vessel will dock at the foot of Gebel Silsileh’s floodlit shrine at night.

Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner are all included.

Day 4: Thursday – Gebel Silsileh:

The Nile is at its tightest here as it winds past two mountain ranges. Larger Nile cruise ships are prohibited from stopping here, thus you are likely to be the only one there. After viewing Horemheb’s modest temple and strolling through the sandstone quarries, where ancient Egyptians carved stone for many of their most renowned temples, you’ll stop at a beautiful café for tea and shisha (waterpipe). Your next destination will be an idyllic riverside where you may swim and relax after lunch.

Breakfast, lunch, and dinner are all included.

Day 5: Friday – Kom Ombo:

A night spent on the river and under the stars will be followed by a journey to Kom Ombo, which includes a visit to its famous temple. The Ptolemaic era saw the construction of the temple, which stands on the site of an earlier structure and overlooks a lovely bend in the river. The temple belonged to Sobek, a crocodile-headed god. After seeing the temple, head to the nearby Crocodile Museum, where you’ll find several mummified crocodiles, testifying to the creature’s historical significance in the area.

Breakfast, lunch, and dinner are all included.

Day 6: Saturday – Aswan:

After a hearty breakfast onboard your Dahabiya Nile cruise, you’ll be taken to the Aswan airport or train station for your final departure.

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!

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.
