Egypt doesn’t ask you to imagine it — it hands you the real thing. Sunrise breaking behind the Pyramids of Giza. The Nile catching gold light as you glide from temple to temple. The hush inside a 3,000-year-old tomb, lit only by a guide’s flashlight and your own held breath. At My Way to Egypt, we’ve spent 25 years turning moments like these into complete journeys, not just highlight reels. Every one of our Egypt tour packages is private and fully tailor-made, built around how you actually want to travel — the pace, the pairings, the pauses. Want the classics done properly? Combine Cairo with a Nile cruise. Craving something further off the map? Layer in Alexandria, Siwa, or the Red Sea coast. Families, honeymooners, and solo travelers all get the same standard: licensed Egyptologists, private transport, and hand-picked stays, with zero guesswork. Below, you’ll find our best-selling packages, each one flexible and backed by 216+ five-star reviews. Pick a starting point, or tell us your dream trip and we’ll build it from scratch.

October – November
20–28°C. The most popular season for British travellers. Comfortable temperatures, manageable crowds, and stunning sunsets over the Nile. Perfect for first-time visitors and families during half-term.
December – February
15–22°C. Cool and clear — ideal for full-day sightseeing at Luxor, Aswan, and the Pyramids without the heat. Very popular with UK travellers escaping winter. Book early: Christmas and New Year sell out fast.
March – May
22–35°C. March and April are excellent — temples are quieter, Nile cruises are smooth, and the light for photography is beautiful. Half-term in February also aligns well with early spring travel.
June – September
35–45°C inland. Peak heat, but great value for budget-conscious UK travellers and perfect for Red Sea beach extensions in Hurghada or Sharm El Sheikh. Sightseeing is best done at sunrise
Egypt runs on the Egyptian Pound (EGP), but GBP and USD are widely accepted at hotels and tours. ATMs are easy to find in all cities. Carry small notes for tips and souvenirs — cards work fine in hotels and restaurants.
Light cotton for days, a layer for cool evenings. Cover shoulders and knees at temples and mosques — a scarf is your best travel companion. Comfortable walking shoes are a must.
Egypt’s sun hits hard — even in December. Apply SPF 50+ and keep reapplying. Drink 2–3 liters of bottled water daily while sightseeing; it’s cheap and everywhere. Never drink tap water.
Most outdoor sites welcome photography freely. Some tombs and museums charge a small camera fee. Sunrise and sunset offer the best light at Giza and Karnak — your guide will flag any restricted areas.
No vaccinations required, but the NHS recommends Hepatitis A, Typhoid, and routine jabs. Bring prescriptions in original packaging. Travel insurance is essential — your GHIC card is not valid in Egypt.
Egyptians are warm and welcoming. Tipping (bakshish) is customary — EGP 50–100 per day for guides. Always ask before photographing people. Bargaining in souks is expected and part of the fun — embrace it.

Most private Egypt tour packages run from $600 for a short 4–7 day trip to $2,500+ for an 11–14 day journey combining Cairo, a Nile cruise, and the Red Sea. Price depends on trip length, hotel category (4-star vs. luxury/5-star), and whether a Nile cruise or internal flights are included. Our packages start from $600 and are fully tailor-made, so you only pay for what's in your itinerary.
7 to 10 days is the sweet spot for most first-time visitors — enough to cover Cairo, Luxor, and Aswan with a Nile cruise, without feeling rushed. Short on time? A 4-day package covers Cairo and Giza well. Want to go deeper? 12–14 days lets you add Alexandria, the Red Sea, or the Western Desert.
Our packages include private transport, hand-picked hotels, a licensed Egyptologist guide, entrance fees to listed sites, and airport transfers. Nile cruise packages also include full-board dining onboard. Flights, visas, and personal expenses (tips, drinks, souvenirs) are typically not included — we confirm exact inclusions on every itinerary before you book.
Yes — every package on this page is a flexible starting point, not a fixed brochure trip. You can adjust the pace, swap a destination, extend a Nile cruise, or combine two itineraries into one. Tell us your dates and interests and we'll adjust the plan at no extra cost.
Yes. Egypt is a well-established, safe destination for guided travel, and private tours add an extra layer of security — you're with a licensed Egyptologist and a private driver throughout, not navigating on your own. We've run private tours across Egypt for 25 years with 216+ verified 5-star reviews.
A 7-day Cairo and Nile cruise package is the classic first-timer choice — it covers the Pyramids of Giza, the Egyptian Museum, Luxor's temples, and a relaxed 3–4 night cruise between Luxor and Aswan. If you have extra time, extending to 10 days adds Abu Simbel and more breathing room between sites.
