Planning your trip
What does "arrival to departure" mean?
From the moment you step off the plane in Egypt until you board your flight home, someone is responsible for every part of your trip: a greeter at the airport, private drivers, licensed Egyptologist guides, and one coordinator you can reach on WhatsApp at any hour.
Are your trips private?
Yes. Your guide, driver and vehicle are for your party only. Nile cruises are shared with other guests unless you charter a dahabiya.
Can you change a package?
Every package is a starting point. We add nights, swap hotels and remove what does not interest you. Use the quote form or message us on WhatsApp.
When is the best time to visit Egypt?
October to April is the most comfortable for sightseeing. December and January are the busiest and most expensive. Summer is hot in Luxor and Aswan, but mornings and evenings are workable and prices are lower.
Practical questions
Do I need a visa?
Most visitors need a visa, available online in advance or on arrival for many nationalities. Rules change, so we confirm what applies to your passport when you book.
Is Egypt safe?
The main tourist areas welcome millions of visitors a year. We follow official travel advice, use licensed drivers and guides, and confirm the feasibility of desert and Sinai routes at booking.
What should I wear?
Light, loose clothes that cover shoulders and knees are comfortable and respectful. Bring a scarf for mosques, a hat and closed shoes for the sites, and a warm layer for winter evenings and balloon flights.
How much should I tip?
Tipping is part of daily life in Egypt. We send you a simple guide with suggested amounts for guides, drivers and crews before you travel.
Booking and payment
How do I book?
Send a quote request or message us on WhatsApp. We reply with a proposal, adjust it with you, and hold the hotels and ships once you confirm with a deposit.
Which currency are prices in?
We quote and charge in US dollars. The currency switcher shows approximate amounts in Canadian dollars, euros and pounds for convenience.
What is your cancellation policy?
It depends on how close to travel you cancel and on the hotels and ships booked. The full policy is on our cancellation page, and your proposal states the terms for your trip.
