Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, a 7-day itinerary is the "sweet spot" for first-time visitors. By including a domestic flight from Cairo to Aswan, this tour eliminates long bus rides, giving you ample time to explore the Giza Pyramids, the Sphinx, and the major temple complexes in both Aswan and Luxor without feeling rushed.
We recommend lightweight, breathable cotton or linen clothing to stay cool. While there is no strict dress code for outdoor monuments, modest dress (covering shoulders and knees) is respectful and provides the best protection from the sun. Comfortable walking shoes are essential for the uneven terrain at Saqqara and Karnak.
Most travelers (including those from the US, UK, Canada, and EU) require a tourist visa. In 2026, you can easily obtain a 30-day visa on arrival at Cairo International Airport for $25 USD (cash), or apply for an e-Visa online at least 7 days before your arrival to save time at the airport.
Absolutely. These major tourist hubs have high safety standards and a dedicated tourist police presence. Egypt remains a top global destination for cultural tourism, and our private transfers and expert guides provide an extra layer of security and convenience throughout your journey.
The best time to visit is during the cooler months from October to April. This allows for comfortable daytime temperatures while exploring the High Dam and the West Bank of Luxor. If you travel during the summer months, we schedule our tours early in the morning to avoid the midday heat.
