    Accommodation
    Group size
    • Itaca HolidayOperator•Written October 2026

      For your group of 2 couples and 1 single traveler, your accommodation will be arranged as 2 double rooms and 1 single room. There is no need to worry about selecting the room arrangement. Once your booking is confirmed, we will simply add the single room supplement of USD 300.

    • S

      Sheila

      Traveler•Written October 2026

      How are the rooms managed, and also if there is a special event for December 31St and New Year? Also if you offer a competitive pack of activities with a fair price, since we want to avoid paying inflated prices for the activities booked during the tour.

    • Itaca HolidayOperator•Written October 2026

      Rooms: We offer double, triple and single rooms. For a single room, there is a single supplement of USD 300. New Year's Eve: Since your dates include December 31st, you will celebrate New Year on board the ship with a special festive celebration. The supplement for the New Year's celebration is USD 200 per person. Activities and extra costs: We understand your concern about inflated prices. Apart from the New Year's supplement (and the single supplement, if applicable), the only additional cost is the entrance tickets to the archaeological sites. There are no other hidden extras or overpriced activity packages.

    Accommodation
    • Itaca HolidayOperator•Written September 2026

      For the standard package, your Cairo accommodation is at King Pyramids View Hotel, which is already included in the tour price.

      If you would like to upgrade to a 5-star hotel, we can arrange your stay at the Sonesta Hotel Cairo, subject to availability. The upgrade can be arranged directly by our sales team, as it is not available as a selectable option on the TourRadar booking page.

      If you would like to proceed with the 5-star upgrade, please let us know and we will arrange it for you and confirm the additional cost.

    Samantha

    Asked on August 29th, 2026

    Is there any other expenses I have to pay, once I commence this tour. I know I would pay for upgrade on train. What is the cost for the entrance fees to attractions? What amount per day for tipping?

    Price / Availability
    Tour Details
    • Itaca HolidayOperator•Written August 2026

      Of course! Just to give you a clear idea of the additional expenses you may have during the tour:

      The entrance fees for the attractions are approximately $135 USD per person and are not included in the tour price.

      For tipping, you can budget around $10 USD per person per day as a starting point. The amount is completely up to you and can vary depending on the service you receive.

      Apart from the entrance fees, tipping, and the train upgrade you mentioned, there should not be any major additional expenses unless you choose any optional activities.

    Our travel protection from our award-winning partner, XCover, means you and your travel companions can book with peace of mind knowing there’s protection available in case your trip doesn’t go to plan. At checkout you will be able to select between different options in case you or the tour are eligible for insurance. In case no option is available, you are always able to purchase travel insurance outside of TourRadar.
