Oversikt

Travel the length of Egypt and explore history, food and landscapes

Few countries can rival Egypt’s wealth of magnificent archeological sites, with the pyramids and Great Sphinx of Giza ranking as two of the most recognisable in the world. It is a place like no other and on this two-week itinerary we explore its treasures across the length of the country. In the north there is the Mediterranean port city of Alexandria and El Alamein, the site of the famous Second World War battle. Cairo’s attractions are world famous but we also experience the bazaars and culinary delights on a food tour. Journeying south by sleeper train we reach the Nubian city of Aswan where we board our Nile cruise boat and discover the monuments and temples all the way to Luxor.

Viktig Informasjon

The trip destination
  • Eight nights in four-star hotels (local grading), three nights on a cruise boat and one night sleeper train
  • Travel by private minibus, cruise boat and sleeper train
  • Extend your trip with some days by the Red Sea
Food
All breakfasts, six lunches and five dinners included. In the itinerary, we state which meals are included on which day. For meals not included, we suggest you allow approximately 235 Egyptian pounds (US$12) for lunch and 350 pounds (US$18) for dinner. Food in Egypt involves such things as kebabs, chicken, stews, pitta bread, falafel, beans, vegetables, pickles and salads. Dishes tend to be simple and wholesome and vegetarians can be catered for, though the options may be somewhat limited. Meals on the cruise are open buffets, which include Western and Egyptian dishes. The Cairo food tour gives us the chance to try several Egyptian dishes, such as ful medames (a mixture of beans and tahini) and kushari (a dish made of rice, macaroni and lentils mixed with garlic, tomato, chickpeas and crispy fried onions).
Weather

Rain is very rare in all parts of Egypt and most days are sunny and clear. Summer temperatures often near 40C (104F) but this is particularly true for the period between June and September. The winter months can be surprisingly cold, especially on the Nile or at night. The average daytime maximum in Cairo in January is 20C (68F), night time minimum is 8C (46F). In the summer, these temperatures are 35C (95F) and 22C (72F) respectively. Daytime temperatures are slightly higher on average in Aswan.

Is this trip for you?

This trip has been graded as Activity Level 2 (Leisurely/Moderate) and suitable for clients with average health and fitness. No experience of any activity involved is necessary. However, please note:

Some days involve early starts but this allows us to get the most from our time in Egypt and avoid the worst of the heat.

Egypt can be hot, especially during the summer, which can cause discomfort while travelling. Care should be taken to keep hydrated. The hottest months tend to be June to September when temperatures can reach as high as 40C (104F) in the south of the country.

The hotels and cruise boat we use on this trip are of a mid-level standard, providing good comfort. The night on the sleeper train is in first-class cabins with shared bathroom facilities. The train is a great way to travel in Egypt, but delays are not uncommon. Please note that the new Egyptian Museum is scheduled to open in November 2022 but that this is subject to change. We will change to the new museum when it is open.

Ramadan is expected to run from approximately 10 March-10 April 2024 and 28 February-29 March 2025. One of the most important periods in the Islamic calendar, it is a special time to visit a Muslim country. Each evening, the streets empty as people head home to break the fast, followed by an air of festivity upon their return. Our leaders and drivers choose to work at this time so we continue to run trips; however, their energy levels may be slightly lower than normal. Many tourist sites, restaurants and shops will have an amended schedule, but your tour leader will know how to adapt the itinerary to still experience all the inclusions on this trip and maximise your experience during this special time.
