09 Days / 08 Nights
Private & Tailor-Made
Cultural & Historical, Nile Cruise
English
There’s a difference between describing a sunset over the Nile and having stood on deck to watch one. Your clients feel that difference in every conversation you have with them — and it’s the reason we built this Egypt FAM trip.
This is your invitation to experience Egypt exactly as your clients will: nine days, private and thoughtfully paced, from the timeless wonders of Cairo to the quiet rhythm of sailing between Aswan and Luxor. You’ll walk where pharaohs once stood, taste the country’s hospitality firsthand, and come home with the kind of knowledge no brochure, blog post, or supplier webinar can give you.

The rest of the day is yours to settle in and explore Cairo at your own pace, with optional evening tours available if you'd like to start early.
Meals: None. Overnight: Hotel, Cairo.

Your Egyptologist guide meets you after breakfast for a full day built around two of Egypt's most iconic experiences. First, the Pyramids of Giza — built around 2500 BC as the necropolis of the Fourth Dynasty kings — along with the Valley Temple and the Great Sphinx. After a leisurely lunch at a local Egyptian restaurant, you'll preview twelve meticulously curated exhibition halls at the Grand Egyptian Museum, tracing Egyptian history in chronological order. Evening is free to explore Cairo on your own.

Following lunch, you'll explore Coptic Cairo, including the Hanging Church and the Church of Abu Serga. Evenings are free, or join our optional Nile Dinner Cruise with traditional entertainment.

Check out and fly to Aswan, where your five-star Nile Cruise boat awaits. Your Aswan city tour includes the High Dam, a motorboat ride to Agilika Island for the Temple of Philae (3rd century BC, dedicated to Isis), and the Unfinished Obelisk — still embedded in its granite bedrock, and would have been the largest obelisk ever raised had it been completed. Return to the cruise for dinner and your first night on the Nile.
Meals: Breakfast, lunch, dinner. Overnight: Nile cruise.

After breakfast on board, you'll dock at Edfu to visit the Temple of Horus, one of the best-preserved temples in Egypt. Back on board for lunch, then onward to the Temple of Kom Ombo, uniquely dedicated to two gods. Evening is free to enjoy the onboard oriental show.
