Many people think you need weeks to see Egypt. However, a 4-day plan offers several benefits.
First, you can focus on the “Big Two” locations: Cairo and Luxor. These cities contain the vast majority of Egypt’s most famous sites. Second, it is a very cost-effective way to travel. You get the maximum “bucket list” impact for a smaller investment. Finally, it serves as a perfect introduction. Many of our guests use a 4-day trip to decide which areas they want to explore more deeply on their next visit.
Your journey begins in Cairo. After we meet you at the airport and help with your bags, you can settle into your hotel.
Evening: We recommend a Nile River Dinner Cruise. You will enjoy traditional food while watching belly dancing and “Tannoura” whirling dervish shows. It is a great way to wake up your senses to the Egyptian culture.
This day is dedicated to the legends of the Old Kingdom.
To see the most in 4 days, we take a morning flight to Luxor.
Your final day covers the best of the city before you head home.
It is possible, but very difficult. You would have to skip Alexandria or some sites in Cairo. We recommend saving Abu Simbel for our 6-day or 10-day tours.
Yes. You will see the Pyramids, the Sphinx, the Egyptian Museum, and the Valley of the Kings. These are the four most important sites in the country.
October, November, and March are perfect. The weather is mild, which allows you to move quickly between sites without getting too hot.

I had the opportunity to do a layover tour with Egypt Fun Tours this Friday, and it was amazing. I had a 10-hour layover tour in Cairo, and I was met by Mohamed on time at the airport. He picked me up in a clean, new, safe, and comfortable van.

Thank you, Egypt Fun Tour, for a most memorable trip. I admit I didn’t do any of the planning (it was all done by my boyfriend), but as you can read in the reviews below, Hani (the owner of Egypt Fun Tours) is superbly organized and accommodating with scheduling. My
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
Fantastic tour. We were picked up at the airport early in the morning (6 am), and were dropped off in the evening after discovering amazing Cairo. The guide was knowledgeable and took us to many hidden places, which we wouldn’t have found without him. Thank you!
