Fly to Cairo
The group flight usually arrives in Cairo this evening. The welcome briefing will either take place this evening or tomorrow morning.
Accommodation: Cairo Pyramids Hotel or similar
Start Cairo
Welcome to Cairo, the capital of Egypt and our starting point for this culture-rich exploration. A welcome briefing will either take place this evening or tomorrow morning.
Accommodation: Cairo Pyramids Hotel (or similar)
Cairo tour
After breakfast we enjoy a full-day tour of Cairo. We begin with a visit to the Egyptian Museum – home to the largest collection of ancient Egyptian artefacts in the world, including the golden riches discovered in Tutankhamun’s tomb. We also explore Al Azhar mosque, which dates to 970 CE and is the oldest mosque in Cairo. It’s still frequently visited by local worshippers and we need to cover up (long sleeves and trousers) to enter – as when entering all mosques. Women will also need to cover their hair with a scarf.
Accommodation: Cairo Pyramids Hotel (or similar)
Pyramids and Great Sphinx of Giza
We begin our day with a visit to Giza, home to the Great Pyramids of Cheops, Chephren and Mycerinus and the mysterious Great Sphinx. Only the throng of sightseers milling around their huge foundations keep you in the 21st century. The afternoon is free to relax at our hotel, explore Cairo or join an optional excursion to Saqqara, Memphis, and Dahshur.
Accommodation: Cairo Pyramids Hotel (or similar)
Food tour of Cairo
Today we embark on a tour of the best food spots in Cairo and discover some of the fantastic local cuisine available across the city – highlights are mulukhiyah (soup), ful medames (beans) and kushari (rice and macaroni). The tour also includes the bazaars of Khan el-Khalili in the historic centre of Islamic Cairo. We’ll experience modern Cairo with a visit to Al Azhar park and a walk along the bustling El Moaz Street. We also aim to visit the House of Arts and Culture – a music school (opening hours are quite limited). Donations of musical instruments such as violins, saxophones, drums or spare parts such as violin bows are welcomed.
Accommodation: Cairo Pyramids Hotel (or similar)
Visit El Anba Bishoy Monastery and El Alamein; continue to Alexandria
Today we start with a 90-minute drive to Wadi El Natrun, a depression that lies below sea level. The ancient Egyptians extracted salt here to use for mummification. The area was important for early Christians, too, and we will visit Ek Anba Bishoy Monastery. We continue to El Alamein (a two-hour drive away), the site of the allied victory during World War II, where we will visit the War Cemetery and Military Museum. More than 80,000 soldiers were killed or wounded in the two battles. It was a decisive win for the Allies with Winston Churchill saying, “Before Alamein we never had a victory. After Alamein we never had a defeat”. After visiting El Alamein, we’ll continue to Alexandria, a two-hour drive away.
Accommodation: Metropole Paradise Inn (or similar)
Alexandria tour; transfer to sleeper train.
Today we have a tour of Alexandria. Founded by Alexander the Great in 331 BCE, the city was home to the Lighthouse of Alexandria, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, and it’s Great Library was the largest library of its time. Unfortunately, they no longer survive, but there is still much to see in this Mediterranean port city. Our tour begins with a visit to the city catacombs followed by the impressive Qaitbay Fortress and the Bibliotheca Alexandrina – Alexandria’s revival of the Great Library. In the afternoon, we return to Cairo (three to four hours) to board our sleeper train to Aswan (which takes approximately 12 hours).
Accommodation: sleeper train
Arrive Aswan; Nubian tour and Felucca ride.
Arriving in Aswan during the morning, we spend the rest of the day exploring the Nubian way of life. We begin with a visit to the Nubian Museum, which chronologically charts the history and culture of the people, before enjoying a Nubian lunch on board a felucca while we explore the Nile. In the afternoon we have a tour to the Monastery of St Simeon by camel* and Animalia Nubian House (please see the People, Places & Planet section). We finish our day with a barbeque on the shores of an island in the Nile.
*To reach the monastery, we’ll ride camels for about 15 minutes. If you prefer not to ride a camel it is possible to walk the 2.5mi (4km) over sandy and stony ground. This part of the trip takes place in the middle of the day when the sun is at its highest.
Accommodation: Basma Hotel (or similar)
Optional visit to Abu Simbel; board cruise boat.
This morning we transfer to our cruise boat and relax before enjoying lunch on board. For the rest of the day there is the option to explore the Aswan market or attend the Sound and Light Show at Philae Temple.
For those who want to do the optional visit to Abu Simbel, the tour starts at approximately 3.30am when we get picked up from the hotel. A breakfast box is provided. Around 8am we will arrive at the destination, where we are given around three hours to visit the temples. Built by Ramses II, the temples of Abu Simbel rank among the most impressive in the country, and are well worth the journey south across the Nubian Desert. We will be back in Aswan around 3pm.
For our Sun Festival departures, the visit to Abu Simbel is included. The festival is a bi-annual event that has been taking place for more than 3,200 years. During the celebrations, the sun perfectly aligns with the usually dark interior and lights up the seated statues of Ramses II; Ra, the sun god; and Amun, the king of the gods. Only the statue of Ptah, the god of darkness, remains in the shadows. There are traditional Nubian dances being performed, street food everywhere (save space for fresh koshari) and live music outside the temple.
Accommodation: M/S Nile Style, M/S Esmeralda or similar
Visit Philae Temple and Aswan High Dam; sail to Edfu.
We begin today with a visit to the Philae Temple and Aswan High Dam. In the 1970s, the temple was relocated by Unesco to Aglika Island after it became evident the original site of Philae would submerge on completion of the dam. This morning represents a magnificent and enduring testament to both ancient and modern engineering. After lunch we sail to Kom Ombo and visit the temple there before continuing our journey to Edfu, which is where we will spend the night.
Accommodation: M/S Nile Style, M/S Esmeralda or similar
Tour Edfu; sail to Luxor.
Waking in Edfu, we start our day exploring the city and its temples before sailing further north along the Nile. After crossing the Esna lock we reach our destination, Luxor, where we will have our final dinner on board and hopefully witness a stunning sunset over the river.
Accommodation: M/S Nile Style, M/S Esmeralda or similar
Disembark in Luxor; explore the Valley of the Kings.
After breakfast on board we disembark in Luxor and explore the Valley of the Kings. For nearly 500 years this was the site of royal burials and it contains the tombs of more than 62 pharaohs, including Tutankhamun, Seti I, Ramses III and IV. 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 a number of 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 of course historically very interesting. After, we visit the massive stone statues of the Colossi of Memnon before transferring to our hotel. The rest of the day is free to relax or wander around the streets of Luxor.
Accommodation: Iberotel Luxor (or similar)
Luxor tour including Karnak and Luxor temples
For our penultimate day we have a half-day tour of Luxor’s east bank. Luxor is commonly called the greatest open-air museum in the world and this morning we visit the extraordinary Karnak and Luxor temples, which stand within the modern city. There should also be an opportunity to visit the A.C.E animal hospital to learn about the efforts taken to improve animal welfare in Egypt. After a leisurely afternoon we enjoy our final dinner together at one of this historic city’s restaurants.
Accommodation: Iberotel Luxor (or similar)

Cruise boat, sleeper train and hotels
We use a range of four-star (local rating) properties throughout this trip and spend three nights navigating the Nile on a cruise boat. Below are the places where we typically stay during our time in Egypt.
Cairo: Cairo Pyramids Hotel (nights 1 to 4)
In Cairo, we typically use the Cairo Pyramids Hotel, which is located close to the Great Pyramids at Giza. The hotel has a pool, choice of dining options, and a fitness area.
Alexandria: Metropole Paradise Inn (night 5)
The Metropole Paradise Inn is located on the corniche with great views of the Mediterranean. It is a historical hotel with classical design throughout and dating back to 1902.
Alexandria to Aswan: Sleeper train (night 6)
We use first-class cabins with shared bathroom facilities.
Aswan: Basma Hotel (night 7)
All rooms in the Basma Hotel have balconies with views of the Nile or desert. The facilities in the rooms and in the hotel itself are excellent, including a choice of bars and restaurants and a huge swimming pool, all set amid well-maintained gardens.
Nile Cruise: M/S Nile Style (nights 8, 9 and 10)
We sail on the M/S Nile Style or a similar cruise boat. Facilities include a swimming pool, sundeck, gift shop, restaurant and lounge bar. Each of the 77 en suite cabins is fully air-conditioned and has a TV. Wifi is also available (it is stronger in the public areas).
Luxor: Iberotel (nights 11 and 12)
Iberotel is on the banks of the River Nile and just a 10-minute walk away from the Luxor Temple. It has a garden terrace and swimming pool with views of the West Bank.
Worth knowing
- In common with all Nile cruises, the M/S Nile Style moors next to other boats at night, meaning you may only have a view of the river from your cabin while sailing.

Reviews
Add your own reviewA cut above other Egypt tours.
A very well planned and operated trip, one of the best I’ve been on with Exodus. We were a capacity group of 20 and were provided with a superb 40 plus seater luxury coach throughout which greatly enhanced the long often slow travel journeys, particularly in Cairo where our elevated viewing position above the traffic mayhem was a delight. The hotels used and the cruise ship were all of a very high standard throughout the tour. I found the staff welcoming and helpful, particularly on our cruise ship MS Style. The cuisine on the cruise ship was exceptional, and breakfast buffets in the hotels were all very good. My one criticism is that where packed breakfasts were provided these were singularly unimaginative, being heavily bread based, with excessive non recyclable plastic packaging. The Hotel Metropole in Alexandria is an Art Nuveaux time capsule and a real experience to stay in. The Luxor Iberotel Hotel is superbly sited with beautiful gardens and a swimming pool overlooking the Nile; great for winding down at the end of your holiday.
Most Inspirational Moment
At the end of my Egypt trip I leave with these, among many other lasting memories: - Best modern wonder - The National Library at Alexandria, - Cairo is outstanding for its diversity, and vibrant culture despite huge social deprivation and awful urban infrastructure. - Worse tourist experience - Abu Simbel, although a fabulous archeological site preservered through one of the worlds most successful engineering projects, impossible to view properly. - Best archaeological site - Temple of Horus at Edfu. - Dancing with Nubian musicians at an evening barbecue on the banks of the Nile. - An impromptu performance by young music students at the multi faith House of Arts and Culture in Cairo. - Most poignant memory - the shared tombstone of two unknown comrades from New Zealand, “ Known to their God”, in the Al Alamein war graves cemetery.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Our tour leader Sayed Mansour was knowledgeable, caring, helpful and compassionate. He went far beyond the usual tour leader duties to give us a real experience of his country which I could tell he has a passionate love of. This tour visits Mosques, Catholic Monestries and multi faith war graves. As a Muslim Sayed gave me an insight to his own faith and its relationship with other faiths in Egypt current and historical that will remain with me/
Advice for Potential Travellers
As others have repeatedly commented this is not a leisurely trip: it’s full on from start to finish. Even if you don’t take up the optional excursions there are lots of very early starts: if you are aware of this they don’t spoil the holiday. This trip with its' extra time in Cairo and Alexandra is in my opinion far superior to the shorter options as the extra time in both cities is well rewarded. Alexandra would be worth a visit to Egypt in itself just to see the New Library . Three days in Cairo was a real experience to sample its vibrant culture, and have plenty of time to view the National Egyptian Museum and the Pyramid complex. Sadly the New Egyptian museum hadn’t opened, but our hotel was close enough for us to enjoy views of its remarkable architecture. The only disappointment in Cairo was the food tour, which was just a lunch at a cafe and a takeaway for tea, not the informative hands on cooking demonstration I’d hoped for. Our visit in March was in the middle of the peak tourist season. I asked our Leader Sayed if there was any time when sites might be even a little less crowded and apart form August which is too hot for most people, he suggested November at the start of the tourist season.
Suggestions
The biggest disappointment to me on this trip, which is completely outside Exodus’s control, was the visitor experience generally at Egypts Archaeological sites. There appears to be virtually no visitor management being operated at these sites run by the government, to the extent that visiting them is often a very unpleasant and potential dangerous experience. Sites are crowded to the extent that the precious archaeological elements are in serious danger. There seems to be little if any control of visitor numbers, or timing of access: a situation compounded by the cruise boat itineraries which discharge the contents of dozens of boats at precisely the same time. Abu Simbel is one of the worlds greatest engineering achievements and it’s archaeology is world class, but the actual experience of seeing it is a nightmare: so ridiculously overcrowded that nobody can stand and stare and appreciate its content. The visit to the Temple of Horus at Edfu from the cruise ships is a Health and Safety disaster waiting to happen. The ships all moor overnight at Edfu and dispatch tourists to the temple visit at around 6.00am so everyone can enter when it opens at 7.30 am so as to be back at the boats for them to sail at 9.30 am. The result was hundreds of people rushing to get through the one small entrance with barriers and a security check when it opened. There was a real danger of a fatal crushing accident and I’ve never felt so unsafe. I leave with real fear for Egypts precious and irreplaceable archaeology which is widely at risk from inadequate visitor management. This has to change.
Illness forced me to cut the trip short.
Unfortunately, I became quite ill on the fifth day of the trip requiring thAT I return to the United States. That portion of the trip in which I was able to participate was very good. The Exodus trip leader, Andrew, was excellent.

We had a most excellent guide in Andrew who was very knowledgeable and experienced. This trip offers many of the highlights along the Nile.

Nefertiti's tomb well worth the price. The Valley of the Queens is a must-see. Seeing the Pyramids at last.

Amazing. I'd follow him anywhere.
Advice for Potential Travellers
December is colder than you think. I felt safe everywhere. Stock up on provisions if lunch isn't provided. 3 days in Cairo in an outlying hotel is a weak spot in the itinerary. Uber works well for getting around on your own, nothing is walkable from Giza Pyramids Hotel.
Suggestions
A good trip with a well-travelled group. Very glad we finally got to go!
Egypt Tour
The trip is really interesting and we definitely learnt a great deal about Egypt’s history. Starting in Cairo my disappoint came from the choice of hotel. We stayed right on the outskirts opposite the new museum (not open yet) with a great view of a Pyramid opposite. The hotel was of an acceptable standard, but overall, the lowest of our trip, but so far from the city it was difficult to venture out for sightseeing or dinner.
The group all agreed that our trip to the museum was too short and as we arrived back at our hotel quite early, we could have stayed longer as there is so much to see. We travelled to Alexandria from Cairo via El Alamein and visited the war museum which is not particularly good.
The old colonial hotel in Alexandria is a great spot with a superb rooftop terrace & restaurant. The local fish restaurant was poor quality although it had a great view, so a different venue would have been better.
The following morning, we visited the castle which was good, but then on the road again to Cairo for our sleeper train. The round trip took over 9 hours by bus for a one-night stay and although I wanted to visit Alexandria 2 nights would have made the round trip more worthwhile.
The sleeper train to Aswan went without hitch and better than I expected for a developing country. Aswan was great and the activities were good with one small issue in that we had a really great meal on our Felucca trip and in the evening a Barbeque on a Nile Island which was much too soon after.
The cruise to Luxor was very good quality and my only comment would be lack of language training of the waiters which I think may be due to Covid disruption, although our guide ate with us and was always there to help.
The temples were incredible and certainly lived up to or were better than their reputation. The engineering fete of moving 22 ancient monuments is almost as incredible as the original build and Abu Simbel really shows this.
A word to would be travellers, this trip is full on and with many early starts to beat the crowds or comply with the Tourist polices schedules. The tourist police are very apparent throughout the trip and in fact on our trip to Alexandria with had an armed guard on the bus who was I have to say was pleasant guy.
All in All, the trip was well organised and ran smoothly.
Most Inspirational Moment
The sheer scale of the temples and the relocation of Philae & Abu Simbel
Thoughts on Group Leader
Our group leader Andrew was brilliant, his explanations were very and kept to a reasonable amount so as not to confuse us too much. It becomes apparent the Ancient Egyptian history is not an exact science with time gaps and the translation of hieroglyphics has a long way to go. Andrew switched our trip to Abu Simbel to the following day as otherwise we would have had a disrupted night’s sleep on the train and then have to get up at 3am the following day, which was great move. Our small group was following only ten strong so Andrew really became a friend within the group. Whatever we needed Andrew would sort out and if we suggested something we would like to do then he would try and arrange it, if there was time. without doubt 10/10
Advice for Potential Travellers
Be ready for cold evenings especially in the north and be ready for lots of early morning starts.
Suggestions
Unless you are particularly interested in Alexandria I would not recommend going, it’s a huge journey for little reward whereas the Pyramids and the temples of the south have much more to offer. I thought the Pyramids would be the highlight of my trip, but he temples of the south to me were fantastic
Review
A fabulous trip with a great group. Top to tail of Egypt, seeing the sites with a great tour guide. History, culture and fun.
Most Inspirational Moment
Pyramids at Giza and Saqqara - awesome!
Thoughts on Group Leader
Sayeed Mansour was excellent - probably the best guide we have had on our Exodus trips. Inspirational, knowledgeable, relaxed, in control, entertaining, humorous, caring and patient. Sayeed became a trusted friend, making us feel safe and secure in for us strange surroundings. Sayeed guided us through the wealth of antiquities and monuments. He was sensitive to when we were flagging a little and provided a boost when it was needed. His explanations of what we were seeing and how it related to other places we had seen/would see meant that we learnt a lot. We understand better some of the political, cultural and economic challenges that Egypt has managed in the past and is facing in the future.
Advice for Potential Travellers
As always, read the trip notes. Take the advice on not buying Egyptian pounds before you leave - take US Dollars and Euros. Don't expect a good nights sleep on the train but do enjoy the experience. Come to terms with haggling early on. Be ready for "bakshish" (tipping) but good news - the tour guide has most of it covered with the team kitty.

Only one disappointment, first night Cairo Heights hotel room a bit shabby but changed after one night for an improved room.
Egypt - a 7000 year journey to the past
My first trip to Africa was a revelation! The history and archeological monuments of Egypt greatly exceeded my expectations. The culture is very different from North America and took a bit to get use to. Fortunately our Guide, Andrew N. , did a superb job of bridging the gap between our reality and theirs. Andrew was so much more than a guide , he is academic Egyptologist. We learned so much. Thank you Andrew. We visited over twenty major attractions in the 14 days, each one special and unique. We felt safe every step of the way and I have no problem recommending this trip to those who revel in ancient Egyptian and are not afraid to experience African culture .
Most Inspirational Moment
The major archeological sites. Giza pyramids, Luxor and the valley of the kings, Aswan with the monuments of Abul Simbel.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Andrew N. was excellent in every way. He has been doing these tours for 20 years and knows all the tricks, short cuts and the best things to watch for at each site. 11 out of 10 stars.
Advice for Potential Travellers
Be careful about eating uncooked foods except at the best restaurants. We caught a stomach bug that threw us off for a few days. The guides have antibiotics in case. Take some plastic baggies and a soft sided lunch bag, as you are allowed to make a simple lunch at the provided breakfast. Often the tour does NOT stop for lunch.
Suggestions
Egypt was a bucket list item for me. Egypt is a very safe for tourist country whose star is rising. Tremendous development is taking place which is nice to see in an African country.
Magical and busy
The trip was varied, and stimulated all the senses. It introduced us to many sides of Egyptian life, modern and ancient. The variety of transport allowed us to experience a variety of views from the bustling markets in the side streets and traffic jams of cities, to the beautiful coastal front of Alexandria and its nearby crystal blue sea, the green farmland near the Nile, the epic pyramids and temples, whether it be by bumpy ride on a camel, a rickety ride on the overnight train or a slowly-bobbing felucca.
Most Inspirational Moment
In Luxor, watching about 20 hot air balloons rise slowly at down from our cabin on the Nile cruise. Driving through the curving sandy landscape towards the Valley of the Kings. Waking up on an overnight train from Cairo to gaze at palm trees, having left the urban bustle behind. Arriving after 4 hours of sunrise driving, at the epic Abu Simbel. Finally, the atmospheric Metropole hotel in Alexandria with breakfast pastries and omelettes that were immaculately presented, delicious and homemade.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Our group leader, Tifa, was very knowledgable, kind and protective. He managed our expectations before we arrived at each site and had good tips as to which highlights were worth paying extra to see. He made sure the group moved as one but allowed us time for photographs and free time in the markets. It was reassuring having an Egyptian guide who knew the customs and language. On occasion, we wanted more time in a location but the schedule was very busy. He was always available and discreet if someone had lost something or felt unwell.
Advice for Potential Travellers
Be prepared for early morning starts, but not on all days. Bring tipping money in Egyptian pounds - ATMs are easily found everywhere. Get used to tipping, as it is expected, even for loo visits! Be aware of paying for extra excursions, pyramid entrance fees or tomb visits - these have been mentioned in a general way in the paperwork before the trip. They are well worth doing, though! For the overnight train trip, wrap up warm as it gets chilly in the night, and perhaps bring a silk sleeping bag liner. Alexandria and Cairo were colder than expected in our mid-March trip. Bring jumpers, socks and perhaps a light jacket. It was much warmer in the southern locations of Luxor and Aswan.
Suggestions
Hats, sunglasses, comfortable walking shoes were key. Pack lightly as suitcases are constantly being unpacked and packed. If you are taking a large camera, small fees to enter a site or museum are often expected but it is worth it for good photos. Earplugs might help if you find car hooting and train wheel motion sounds a bit distracting at night! Though, for a light sleeper, I mainly nodded off fine. The last hotel in Luxor (Iberotel) had noisy rooms street-side - so do request that this hotel is changed. It had a beautiful swimming pool on the Nile, though. The first hotel in Cairo, has changed from the Pyramid Park Hotel to the Sonesta and this was very comfortable and welcoming, as were all other hotels on the trip, bar the Iberotel!

Good fun and a bit tiring
Thoroughly enjoyed this trip. We had a great variety from ancient Egypt to modern (such as the library at Alexandria). Our guide was terrific, always attentive and prepared. The Nile cruise was a highlight.
There were more early starts than I might have liked, but that was dictated by distances we needed to cover. The hotels were rather bland (except for the wonderful one in Alexandria), but no doubt chosen for their cleanliness and safety.
The overnight train was a real adventure, although most of our group found it hard to get any sleep.
We had an armed guard with us for most of the trip, which was both reassuring and a bit alarming!

Going down into King Tut's tomb. What fun!
