$2799—Up to 70% off 9-day, 5-star Egypt tour
A small-group Egyptian journey blending 5-star stays, iconic sites and a dreamy 4-night Nile cruise.
Why We Love This Deal
This 9-day tour has all the right elements: breadth, depth, 5-star comfort and a small-group experience. You’ll check off Egypt’s Big Five without the frantic pace. The non-negotiables? The Pyramids and Sphinx, the brand-new Grand Egyptian Museum, a Nile cruise, Luxor, Aswan and Abu Simbel. We especially love that the museum comes before you head south. You'll get the story before the stones—the context that makes everything click. Fly to Luxor for your 5-star stay, perfectly placed for exploring the Valley of the Kings. Then slow the rhythm on a four-night Nile cruise. Think sunsets on deck, temples at dusk and a calm river drift that takes all your stresses away. Sail to Kom Ombo and Edfu, wander through Karnak’s colossal columns, and watch the desert change colour. In Aswan, glide along the river before flying to Abu Simbel—a true showstopper most tours skip. You’ll fly the long stretches (a blessing for both comfort and sanity). And with a real Egyptologist guiding the way, you don’t just see Egypt—you'll come to understand it.

Stand beneath the monumental pyramids of Giza, meeting the timeless Sphinx and marvelling at the sheer engineering brilliance of the world’s last remaining ancient wonder.
Begin your Nile cruise in Luxor, drifting between Karnak’s forest of columns and the graceful temple of Luxor, where pharaonic stories unfold along the riverbanks.
Explore the Valley of the Kings, entering richly decorated royal tombs where vibrant hieroglyphs reveal the pharaohs’ beliefs about the afterlife and their eternal journey west.
Sail south toward Kom Ombo, stepping ashore to wander its riverside temple where twin sanctuaries honour Sobek and Horus, glowing warmly in the late afternoon sun.
Continue to Edfu, riding through the town to reach the grand Temple of Horus, one of Egypt’s best-preserved sanctuaries, carved with soaring reliefs and ancient rituals.
Arrive in Aswan to disembark your cruise, gliding past feluccas, peaceful islands and Nubian villages before exploring the High Dam, Philae Temple and the region’s serene landscapes.
