An 8-day tour is great for the basics. But 10-day Egypt tours are for the true explorer. This duration is the “Grand Tour” of the ancient world. It gives you enough time to see the Nile, the Pyramids, and the Red Sea coast. In 2026, the 10-day format is the top choice for families and honeymooners. At Egypt Fun Tours, we design these trips for balance. You will see every major monument. But you will also have time to relax at a luxury resort.

A 10-day trip is the “no-compromise” vacation.
To provide the best authority, we share these local secrets.
In a 10-day plan, you have the time. A 4-night cruise from Luxor to Aswan is slower. It gives you more time to enjoy the river views. It also makes the check-in and check-out process much easier.
You will interact with more staff on a longer trip.
Not at all. Egypt has 5,000 years of history. Even in 10 days, you only see the highlights. It is the perfect length to avoid “temple fatigue.”
Yes. On a 10-day trip, we can add a day-trip to Alexandria. You would spend 1 less day at the Red Sea.

In April 2011, my husband and I, after great debate, took a trip to Egypt. Because of the political situation, we decided to book a tour for our time in Cairo and Luxor. We are very happy that we did, since these are two cities that should not be missed.
Our long drive from Cairo turned into a terrifying flight through Alexandria’s impossibly crowded streets. Our minivan miraculously avoided hitting pedestrians, donkey carts, and old Lada cars. We arrived at the port gates with only 10 minutes to spare. But the guards ignored our U.S. passports, and they refused to
Really excellent tour from Mohamed, and we learned so much about Egypt and went to places we never would have found as tourists at home. My girlfriend had a 12 hour stop over on the way to Ethiopia and it was the perfect way to see Cairo. I hope people
My husband and I had a fantastic time in Egypt, exploring the pyramids and temples and learning more about the ancient Egyptian beliefs and customs. From the time I first contacted Egypt Fun Tours to plan our trip, Hamada responded promptly to our questions. After explaining to him that we
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
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
The Nile cruise, Luxor, and Aswan were amazing sites to see, especially when you have the best tour guide in Egypt. Hamada was absolutely fantastic, lots of information, and some of it not spoken by others. This guy was not only a simple tour guide for us, but he also

I can’t recommend them enough. I got into Cairo on a 12-hour layover at 2:00 AM. By 3:15 Hani and his driver were meeting me at the airport. For the next five hours we strolled through lovely downtown Cairo & over the Nile, wandered through (friendly, well-organized) Tahrir Square, toured

My friend and I planned a whirlwind trip to Dubai, the Dead Sea, Petra, Cairo, Luxor, and Sharm el Sheikh for early November 2011 – 6 cities in 10 days! We allotted one afternoon and evening for Cairo, and we wanted to see as much as we could! We drove
We travelled to Cairo on Friday, May 3, 2019, from Toronto. We landed at 0530 and were met by a representative of Fun Tours at the departure gate. We were only on a layover of 6 hours, and the tour company came with a private van, water, a driver, and
