Egypt Tours 11 Days: The Ultimate All-In-One Adventure

An 11-day Egypt itinerary is the most complete way to see the country. It is longer than the standard week-long trip. This extra time allows you to move beyond the famous Pyramids. In 2026, 11 days is the top choice for travelers who want to see the Nile Valley plus a second major region like the Red Sea or the Mediterranean Coast. At Egypt Fun Tours, we use these 11 days to create a “no-rush” experience. You will see the world-famous sites. But you will also discover hidden temples that most tourists miss.

Why 11 Days is the Best Explorer Choice

11 days gives you the freedom to customize your trip.

  • The “Triple Crown”: You can visit Cairo, the Nile, and the beach in one trip.

  • Hidden History: You have time for the temples of Abydos and Dendera. These have the most colorful carvings in Egypt.

  • Ultimate Relaxation: You don’t have to fly every day. You can spend 3 full days by the Red Sea to recharge.

Three Popular 11-Day Itinerary Paths

Option 1: The “Classic & Coast” (Nile + Red Sea)

This is our #1 seller for 2026.

  • Days 1–3: Cairo and the Great Pyramids. Explore the Grand Egyptian Museum.
  • Days 4–7: A 5-star Nile Cruise from Aswan to Luxor. Visit Abu Simbel and the Valley of the Kings.
  • Days 8–10: Drive to Hurghada on the Red Sea. Enjoy snorkeling and luxury resorts.
  • Day 11: Final flight to Cairo for departure.

Option 2: The “History Deep-Dive” (Alexandria + Nile)

  • Days 5–10: Full Nile immersion. Visit Luxor and Aswan with extra time for the Nubian Village.
  • Day 11: Return to Cairo.

Option 3: The “Desert Soul” (White Desert + Nile)

For the adventurous traveler.

Expert Advice for 11 Days in Egypt

To maintain authority, we share these 2026 travel secrets.

The Hurghada-Luxor Connection

Many people think you must fly to the beach. In an 11-day tour, we recommend a private car from Luxor to Hurghada. It takes about 4 hours. You see the beautiful Eastern Desert mountains along the way.

Don’t Skip Saqqara

With 11 days, you have time to see Saqqara and Memphis. Most short tours skip this. But Saqqara is home to the Step Pyramid, the oldest stone building in history. It is essential for understanding the Giza Pyramids.

Tipping (Baksheesh) for 11 Days

  • Tour Guide: $150 USD total for the trip.
  • Driver: $80 USD total for the trip.
  • Cruise Crew: $50 USD total per cabin.

FAQs: Egypt Tours 11 Days

Is 11 days enough to see the whole country?

It is enough for the “Grand Highlights.” You can see the Nile, Cairo, and the Red Sea. You would need 15 days to add the Siwa Oasis or Mount Sinai.

Do I need a special visa for 11 days?

No. The standard tourist visa is valid for 30 days. You can get it at the airport for $25 USD.

Is the Nile Cruise the best part?

Most of our guests say yes! The 11-day plan usually includes a 4-night cruise. This is the best way to see the rural side of Egypt.
