A fast and pacey trip to loads of temples. Be prepared for early starts and full days packed with history, culture and adventure! The dessert trip is full of amazing sites and the camping is a brilliant experience of eating campfire cooked Egyptian food and star gazing like you've never seen before!

I highly recommend this trip; it was a fantastic opportunity to rediscover the ancient culture of Egypt. The tombs, temples, and hieroglyphics were truly impressive. While the itinerary was a bit tight, I understand it was designed to make the most of our time. The hotels, cruise, and food were all excellent. Special thanks to our guide, Tamer. Despite suffering from a cold, he gave his absolute best. He was incredibly knowledgeable about Egypt and treated every single person with patience. The travel agency, Holiday in Egypt, also deserves high praise. They managed everyone’s different schedules with great care and attention to detail.

We contacted Tour Radar initially and was put in contact with Vacations To Go Travel. Don’t even try to go to Egypt if you don’t have Vacations To Go (John in our case) walking you through every process…from picking you up at the airport, getting the required Visa, and getting you to the hotel and back to the airport. The tour guides contracted were the absolute best. Tamer guided us through the Pyramids and museum and organized a wonderful lunch with an incredible view. After flying to Luxor for the cruise portion of the trip, we met up with our guide Monsour. He stayed with us every step of the way for the next 4 days. He was a wealth of knowledge and his love for Egypt was contagious. We highly recommend Vacations To Go Travel and there’s nothing we would have wanted done any differently. 15 out of 10 rating!!

Best time to visit Egypt
- Spring 2026
Spring brings ideal conditions for combining historical sites with outdoor experiences. The March-May tours that include the Red Sea portion are especially popular since the water temperature is perfect for snorkeling and diving. Our spring itineraries often start in Cairo then head south via domestic flight rather than overnight train - it's worth the upgrade to maximize your time. Several tours mix a 4-5 day Nile cruise with time in a traditional Nubian village, which our travelers consistently rate as a highlight. The spring routes through Aswan often include sunrise visits to Abu Simbel followed by afternoon felucca rides when the river breeze picks up.
- March 2026 1,654 tours
- April 2026 popular 1,730 tours
- May 2026 1,700 tours
- Summer 2026
Summer tours require smart planning but offer real benefits - you'll find smaller crowds at major sites and much better deals on hotels and cruises. Our most successful summer itineraries start very early each day, usually around sunrise, then break during the intense midday heat. Many include extended time at the Red Sea where you can cool off between historical visits. The air-conditioned cruise ships work particularly well in summer - you'll explore temples early, then retreat to the comfort of the boat while sailing to the next stop. Several tours include evening activities like the Luxor Temple light show and also traditional music performances when temperatures are more comfortable.
- popular 1,663 tours
- July 2026 1,650 tours
- August 2026 1,649 tours
- Fall / Autumn 2026
The autumn months from September through November hit a sweet spot - the heat has eased but winter crowds haven't arrived. Our fall tours often include extended time in places that can be too hot in summer, like the Valley of the Kings and Abu Simbel. Many combine a traditional felucca sailing with a luxury cruise ship portion, giving you different perspectives on the Nile. The October departures work especially well for photography - you get beautiful golden light at the temples without intense shadows. Several tours include desert camping experiences which are much more comfortable in the moderate fall temperatures, and also longer stays in Aswan where you can really explore the local markets and culture.
- September 2026 popular 1,680 tours
- October 2026 1,640 tours
- November 2026 1,604 tours
- Winter 2026 / 2027
Winter trips through Egypt give you some real advantages - the temperatures are just right for exploring and you'll get excellent value even at luxury properties. Our most requested winter tours combine classic highlights with smart planning to avoid peak crowds. Several include early morning visits to the Valley of the Kings followed by afternoon Nile cruises when the light is perfect for photos. The winter routes work particularly well for combining Cairo's main sites with extended time in Luxor and Aswan. Our travelers love the December-February departures that include both a traditional felucca sailing and also proper cruise ship comfort. The guides adjust the schedule thoughtfully - you'll do most outdoor exploring in the cooler morning hours, then switch to indoor sites like the Egyptian Museum during midday.
