Private Egypt Tour: Your Itinerary

Your dates, your pace, your interests: a private journey planned from scratch.

Visiting Egypt Flexible Tailor-made

The experience

Overview

Some travelers want the classics; others want the desert at night, a cooking class, or a week by the sea after the temples. A private tour starts with what you love and is built from there.

We begin with a conversation and a first draft. You react, we refine, and once the plan feels right we arrange every piece: hotels, guides, drivers, domestic travel and the small touches that make a trip yours.

Throughout, you deal with one contact who knows the whole plan.

Highlights

What it covers

  • Ancient Egypt in depth

    Saqqara, Dahshur, Abydos and Dendera, beyond the classic circuit.

  • The Nile by dahabiya

    A small sailing boat between Luxor and Aswan, mooring where big ships cannot.

  • Desert and oases

    The White Desert’s chalk formations or the oasis of Siwa.

  • Red Sea downtime

    Reefs, beaches and slow mornings after the sightseeing.
