Detailed itinerary

Day 1 · Cairo arrival and hotel

Meet your representative at the confirmed arrival point, transfer to the proposed hotel and settle in. No sightseeing is promised before the arrival time is checked. This day is reserved for the named transfer, embarkation or leisure plan. No unlisted attraction is included. Allow time for check-in procedures, meals and rest; optional experiences can be quoted before departure. Hotel breakfasts are included where a hotel night is part of the accommodation plan; other meals follow the explicit inclusions.

Day 2 · Giza Pyramids + Sphinx + Egyptian Museum

Your guide follows the listed route at a practical pace, with a break for lunch at your own expense unless a cruise or activity meal is specified. Return to the accommodation or continue to the next overnight stop shown in the route. Hotel breakfasts are included where a hotel night is part of the accommodation plan; other meals follow the explicit inclusions.

Explore the Giza plateau with an introduction to the pyramids of Khufu, Khafre and Menkaure. Your guide connects the monuments with the surrounding royal cemetery and identifies suitable public viewpoints. Pyramid-interior admission is a separate choice, so there is no need to enter a narrow passage to enjoy the visit.

Continue to the Sphinx viewing area and the surrounding temple landscape. Discuss the relationship between the royal image, the causeway and the pyramid complex while leaving time for photographs. Access restrictions and the flow of visitors determine where your group can stand; no access inside the Sphinx enclosure is promised.

Explore selected collections at the Egyptian Museum in Tahrir Square. Follow a focused route that gives objects context and allows time for questions. Display arrangements can change as collections are redistributed, so the visit is not sold on a promise that a particular treasure remains in a particular room.

Day 3 · Cairo to Luxor flight connection and hotel

This day is reserved for the named transfer, embarkation or leisure plan. No unlisted attraction is included. Allow time for check-in procedures, meals and rest; optional experiences can be quoted before departure. The domestic flight itself is excluded from the base price and must be booked to a confirmed compatible schedule. Hotel breakfasts are included where a hotel night is part of the accommodation plan; other meals follow the explicit inclusions.

Day 4 · Valley of the Kings + Hatshepsut Temple + Karnak Temple

Your guide follows the listed route at a practical pace, with a break for lunch at your own expense unless a cruise or activity meal is specified. Return to the accommodation or continue to the next overnight stop shown in the route. Hotel breakfasts are included where a hotel night is part of the accommodation plan; other meals follow the explicit inclusions.

Enter the Valley of the Kings and visit the tombs covered by the standard ticket on your date. Your guide explains the royal burial landscape and prepares you for the interiors where guiding rules may restrict commentary. Special tomb admissions are separate unless explicitly included; no particular open-tomb combination is guaranteed.

Continue to the terraced memorial temple of Hatshepsut at Deir el Bahari. Walk through the accessible levels and examine the relationship between architecture and the limestone cliffs. The open courtyard can be hot, so take breaks and discuss any difficulty with ramps or stairs before the excursion.

Explore the temple complex of Karnak, moving through its courtyards and columned spaces with an Egyptologist. A focused route explains how successive rulers changed the site. Allow time to absorb the scale instead of rushing every corner; conservation work and crowd flow can alter the precise walking route.

Day 5 · Edfu + Kom Ombo + Aswan hotel

Your guide follows the listed route at a practical pace, with a break for lunch at your own expense unless a cruise or activity meal is specified. Return to the accommodation or continue to the next overnight stop shown in the route. Hotel breakfasts are included where a hotel night is part of the accommodation plan; other meals follow the explicit inclusions.

Explore the Temple of Horus at Edfu and its unusually complete architectural sequence. The transfer from a cruise mooring is agreed in advance, with a motor vehicle requested where locally available. Animal-drawn transport is not assumed, and alternative arrangements may affect time or cost.

Visit the twin temple at Kom Ombo overlooking the Nile. Your guide explains the paired layout and helps you read selected surviving scenes. Cruise arrivals can bring busy periods; the visit follows the actual sailing or road schedule, with museum access included only if stated in your quotation.

Day 6 · Philae Temple + Nubian Museum

Your guide follows the listed route at a practical pace, with a break for lunch at your own expense unless a cruise or activity meal is specified. Return to the accommodation or continue to the next overnight stop shown in the route. Hotel breakfasts are included where a hotel night is part of the accommodation plan; other meals follow the explicit inclusions.

Take the arranged boat to the Philae temple complex and explore its island setting with your guide. Discuss the cult of Isis and the monuments’ relocation without rushing the waterfront views. Boat access involves steps and changing water levels; mobility needs must be checked with the actual embarkation facilities.

Visit the Nubian Museum in Aswan to place the region’s monuments, communities and changing landscape in context. A focused route highlights selected objects rather than claiming to cover the entire collection. Opening arrangements and any temporary gallery closure are checked before finalising the excursion.

Day 7 · Aswan checkout and departure

After the included breakfast, complete the listed final arrangements and take the confirmed departure transfer. Checkout time and flight buffer are agreed separately. Hotel breakfasts are included where a hotel night is part of the accommodation plan; other meals follow the explicit inclusions.

Price and booking basis

Indicative regular price: US$699 per adult sharing a twin/double room or cabin, 6 nights.

Indicative regular base rate in USD, proposed for standard non-holiday dates and subject to written confirmation before booking. No live availability is implied. Christmas, New Year, Easter and the August 2027 eclipse period require a separate quotation. There is no fabricated discount or crossed-out comparison price.

Children’s ages, solo occupancy, additional passengers and accessibility arrangements are quoted individually. Required extras are disclosed before payment; an enquiry does not reserve inventory.

Pickup and practical details

In Cairo, select the hotel area and daily route together. A Giza-focused day and a historic-city walk can require very different transfers. Allow time for traffic, entry procedures and a meal break, and confirm the current opening arrangements directly before travel. Airport pickup requires flight information and legal entry eligibility; a sightseeing reservation does not resolve visa or transit requirements. For religious sites, choose respectful clothing and follow the instructions given at each entrance.

Please provide the full hotel name, arrival details and a contact number that works during travel. Tell us about mobility needs, dietary restrictions and children’s ages before confirmation. No specific accessibility, language upgrade or special venue access is assumed without agreement.

Cancellation

Cancel in writing at least 24 hours before the confirmed service start for a full refund of the amount paid to Wow Travel Egypt for that service. The cutoff uses the local time shown in your confirmation. For a multi-day booking, the cutoff is measured from the start of the whole booking.

Frequently asked questions

Does an enquiry confirm my booking?

No. We confirm the date, services and total price in writing before a reservation is accepted. Do not book dependent transport on the basis of an indicative rate alone.

Are entrance fees included?

Use the inclusions above and your written quotation. Standard cultural admission and special tickets are excluded unless specifically listed; activity admission such as the booked boat or beach pass follows its own inclusion list.

Can the route be adapted?

Tell us your priorities before confirmation. Changes may affect price, transport or the available time. A safety or access restriction cannot be overridden by a request.
