Itinerary

Cairo Aswan

This premium adventure begins in Cairo, the capital of Egypt, where the modern world meets the old. There’s plenty packed into this holiday, but today is all about settling in. We’ll gather at the hotel for our welcome briefing this evening if flights arrive early enough. If not then your leader will brief you on day 2.

Premium accommodation: Cairo Marriott Zamalek (five-star)

Today, on our second day in Cairo, we pay a visit to the incredible Egyptian Museum of Antiquities, which contains relics dating to 4000 BCE, including the fantastic riches of Tutankhamun’s tomb. Here is a unique opportunity to survey the many fabulous treasures of Egypt in one place and to set the scene for the rest of the tour.

For the remainder of the day, we experience modern Cairo with visits to Al Azhar Mosque (the oldest mosque and university in Cairo but still very much in use) and the small alleyways and streets that make up Cairo bazaar. Please note, we will need to cover up at the mosque (long sleeves and trousers) and women will also need to cover their hair with a scarf.

Please note: When the Grand Egyptian Museum is fully open, we will go there instead of the Egyptian Museum of Antiquities.

Premium accommodation: Cairo Marriott Zamalek (five-star)

Meals included: Breakfast

After breakfast, we depart our hotel for a half-day tour of the Pyramids at Giza.

Home to the Great Pyramids of Cheops, Chephren and Mycerinus and the timeless and enigmatic Sphinx; these great monuments to the afterlife defy the imagination. Only the throng of sightseers, Egyptian and foreign, milling around their huge foundations, keep the viewer in the 21st century.

In the afternoon, there will be free time if you wish to relax by the hotel pool or take an optional excursion to Sakkara.

Premium accommodation: Cairo Marriott Zamalek (five-star)

Meals included: Breakfast

We typically transfer to Cairo airport before sunrise for our flight to Luxor (flight times can vary). On arrival in Luxor, we visit Luxor Temple and the huge Karnak Temple complex on the east bank of the Nile. Built over 1,500 years, Karnak is a confusion of pylons, courtyards, halls and sanctuaries. The Hypostyle Hall here has 134 columns, some of which are more than 75ft (23m) high. Both temples are incredibly impressive. We arrive at our cruise boat in time for lunch on board before having free time in the afternoon to relax or explore Luxor.

Premium accommodation: MS Movenpick Royal Lily or Royal Lotus (five-star)

Meals included: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner

We begin Day 5 with a visit to the Valley of the Kings on the west bank of the Nile, which contains the once-hidden tombs of more than 60 pharaohs, including Tutankhamun, Seti I, Ramses III and IV. A discreet hillside entrance takes us underground; a series of corridors and ante-chambers leading to the burial chamber and sarcophagus. The walls are covered in brightly painted images and hieroglyphs – a map of the afterlife to ensure the king’s safe passage. One ticket allows us to see three tombs. The ticket usually allows entry into what are regarded as the most impressive tombs, but if you have time, a visit to the tomb of Ramses VI is also highly recommended. Visits to tombs are now strictly controlled to halt further deterioration of wall paintings – each tomb is periodically closed for several weeks. Entry to Tutankhamun’s tomb costs approximately US$12, payable locally. In terms of size and decoration, it is not as impressive as many of the other tombs but is historically very interesting.

Next, we visit Hatshepsut Temple and Colossi of Memnon. Both spectacular, the former is a mortuary temple built at the foot of limestone cliffs, the latter is two grand seated statues depicting Pharaoh Amenhotep III.

On return to our cruise boat, we begin our voyage along the Nile, travelling upstream from Luxor to Aswan. Exact sailing and excursion times cannot be guaranteed for each trip, but we will visit the temples of Edfu, famous for its roofed inner temples and huge Pylon, and Kom Ombo. The cruise boat has good facilities: a sundeck with sun loungers, bar and small pool, restaurant, gift shop and library – these can all be enjoyed when the cruise boat is docked or sailing. The sunsets over the Nile are stunning and travelling from Luxor to Aswan, enjoying the beauty of the verdant landscape, make this journey special.

Premium accommodation: MS Movenpick Royal Lily or Royal Lotus (five-star)

Meals included: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner

Today, there is the choice to have a full day in Aswan or an optional visit to Abu Simbel.

Aswan is a laid-back town that reflects the character of its largely Nubian inhabitants, known for being friendly and hospitable. By virtue of its position on the old caravan route, it has always been a trading centre and we thoroughly recommend a visit to the packed bazaar today where merchants display a wealth of exotic spices, carpets, leather goods and countless other wares.

Today there’s also the option of flying to the magnificent temples of Abu Simbel, 186mi (300km) to the south through the Nubian Desert. Built by Ramses II, the two temples are certainly some of the most spectacular in Egypt. Originally on the banks of the Nile, the temples were raised to a new site above the lake in the late 1960s, as the waters from the new Lake Nasser rose behind the Aswan High Dam. The four great seated statues of Ramses II stare east towards the rising sun. You are picked up from the boat early in the morning with a breakfast box and arrive back to Aswan in the afternoon.

Later in the day, we enjoy a sunset sail on a felucca, a traditional wooden sailing boat. Feluccas have been a fixture on the Nile for centuries and are used in the protected waters of the Red Sea and eastern Mediterranean. The deck is strewn with soft, colourful cushions and rugs and equipped with a canopy offering shade.

We spend our last evening on board the MS Movenpick Royal Lily or Royal Lotus.

Premium accommodation: MS Movenpick Royal Lily or Royal Lotus (five-star)

Meals included: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner

After breakfast on board, we disembark our boat and visit Philae Temple. In the 1970s, it was relocated by UNESCO to Aglika Island after it became evident the original Philae site would submerge on completion of the Aswan High Dam. It represents a magnificent and enduring testament to both ancient and modern engineering. During this excursion, we also visit Aswan High Dam, and you have the option of visiting the Unfinished Obelisk (paid for locally).

You can also add an optional excursion to Animalia Nubian Village and enjoy a farewell dinner before returning to the hotel. The Aswan hotel has a perfect location. Enjoy views of the Nile from your room or head to the Panorama Restaurant & Bar, the highest point in Aswan, for 360-degree views of the river.

Premium accommodation: Movenpick Resort, Aswan (five-star)

Meals included: Breakfast, Dinner

This unforgettable trip through Egypt ends after breakfast. Either make your way home or, if you’d like a post-adventure relax, speak to your sales representative about extending your stay at the marvellous Movenpick Resort.

Meals included: Breakfast

Essential Info

Is this trip for you?

This trip is graded Activity Level 1 (Easy). For more information on our trip gradings please visit the Activity Level Guidelines page. If you have any queries about the difficulty of the trip please do not hesitate to contact us.

Suitability: This trip is suitable for everyone with average health and fitness. No experience of any activity involved is necessary. Most days involve early starts (especially Day 4 when we catch an early flight to Luxor) but this allows us to get the most from our time in Egypt and avoid the worst of the heat.

Climate: Egypt can get hot, especially from June to September when temperatures can reach as high as 38C-40C (100F-104F) in the south of the country.

Ramadan is expected to run from approximately 28 February-29 March 2025 and 17 February-19 March 2026. 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.

Following a review of all our trips we have categorised this trip as not suitable for full wheelchair users, but it may be suitable for other persons of reduced mobility. Please contact customer services to discuss the trip and your personal condition.

Please note, Egyptian officials have requested tourists carry a copy of their passport with them while in the country. Please also note, some prescribed medicines are controlled substances in Egypt.

Food & Drink

All breakfasts, four lunches and four dinners included.

In the itinerary, we state which meals are included on which day. We suggest you allow 2,460-3,445 Egyptian dollars (approximately US$100-US$140) for meals not included. Food in Egypt involves such things as kebabs, chicken, stews, pitta bread, falafel, beans, aubergine (eggplant) and other vegetables, pickles and salads. Dishes tend to be simple and wholesome and vegetarians can be catered for if they accept the options may be somewhat limited. On board the cruise ship there is one complimentary bottle of water in your cabin and after this drinks are not included.

Weather

Rain is very rare in all parts of Egypt and most days are sunny and clear. Summer temperatures often reach the upper 30s (around 100F) but this is particularly true for the period between June and September. Winter can be surprisingly cold, especially on the Nile or at night. The average daytime maximum in Cairo in January is 20C (68F), nights are minimum 8C (46F). In summer, these temperatures are 35C (95F) and 22C (72F) respectively. Daytime temperatures are a little higher on average in Aswan.
