    Tracy

    Asked on July 5th, 2026

    I would like to request your assistance for a group of approximately 7 to 10 adults interested in traveling to Egypt to witness the solar eclipse on August 2, 2027. Their travel window would be 7 days, starting their trip on July 31, 2027. I wanted to ask if you know of any special events or viewing activities being organized at the Pyramids or other major points of interest for this phenomenon. Additionally, I assume this tour itinerary can be adapted to match their specific travel dates, correct?

    Group size
    Tour Details
    • Itaca HolidayOperatorWritten July 2026

      Yes, we can certainly arrange the tour for your group of 7–10 adults with the requested travel dates, starting on July 31, 2027, and customize the itinerary to fit your schedule. We are also monitoring any special events or official viewing activities that may be organized for the August 2, 2027 solar eclipse. If there are any confirmed events at the Pyramids or other major locations, we will be happy to help arrange your participation.

  • S

    Sherry

    Asked on June 29th, 2026

    Is it possible to replace the train journeys with domestic flights? Cairo to Aswan and Luxor to Cairo. If this modification is possible, what would be the recommended flights or schedules, the eventual supplement to pay if you handle the reservation, or should I reserve these flights myself?

    Flights / Transfers
    Transport
    • Itaca HolidayOperatorWritten June 2026

      Yes, it is absolutely possible to replace the train journeys with domestic flights.

      The additional cost is USD 180 per person, per one-way flight.

      The flight duration is approximately 1 hour.

      The usual flight schedules are:

      Cairo → Aswan: around 7:00 AM
      Luxor → Cairo: around 8:00 PM

      We recommend that we book the flights for you, as this allows us to coordinate everything smoothly with your tour itinerary, airport transfers, and sightseeing schedule, ensuring everything runs perfectly.

      Sophie

      TravelerWritten June 2026

      Can you also tell me if there is anyway, we could start the tour on the ninth instead of the 10th.

    • S

      Sophie

      TravelerWritten June 2026

      What additional fees should we anticipate, or are the interface fees and other fees besides tipping included with the price?

    • Itaca HolidayOperatorWritten June 2026

      Please note that travel insurance is optional and is not required to participate in the tour.

      We can also arrange for the tour to start on the 9th instead of the 10th, if that is more convenient for you.

      Regarding the entrance fees, these refer to the archaeological and historical sites that you will visit throughout the tour, as outlined in the itinerary. These entrance fees are not included in the package price and are approximately USD 120 per person.

    Asked on May 25th, 2026

    I am planning a trip to Egypt with my parents (51 and 48), myself (24), and my brother (16). We are planning to travel from October 3–11, and the 7-day itinerary you offer looks perfect for us. I was wondering if it would be possible to join the full tour while excluding the days in Cairo, since we will already have accommodation and hosts there. I would also like to know the cost of the additional activities and excursions, such as Abu Simbel and any other optional add-ons included with the trip.

    Age Range
    Price / Availability
    Tour Details
    • Itaca HolidayOperatorWritten May 2026

    Flights / Transfers
    Tour Details
    • Itaca HolidayOperatorWritten April 2026

      Yes, this itinerary can certainly be arranged. However, we will need to know your arrival date in Egypt and the total number of days for your trip in order to plan everything properly and provide you with the best arrangement.

      Once we have these details, we will organize your program including Cairo sightseeing, your flight to Aswan, and all transfers accordingly.

  • R

    Rob

    Asked on March 25th, 2026

    Can we still join the tour for the 2nd of April if our flight lands at 00:15 on 3rd of April? When would flights to Aswan and Cairo be leaving and is there a big difference between comfort level on the sleeping train or the flight?

    Flights / Transfers
    Tour Details
    • Itaca HolidayOperatorWritten March 2026

      Yes, you can join the tour on April 2nd, and this option is very suitable for your schedule.

      Flights from Cairo to Aswan are usually in the morning to match the Nile cruise itinerary. Flights from Luxor to Cairo are typically in the evening after the Nile cruise ends.

      Yes, there is a difference — flying is the better option, as the flight duration is only about 1 hour, while the sleeping train takes approximately 14 hours.

    • R

      Rob

      TravelerWritten March 2026

      What time in the morning would the flight from Cairo be at? Also what time would flight from Luxor reach Cairo? The option mentions a hotel with the flights? Is this a hotel for the 8th night in Cairo? Is it possible to book the flights without the hotel?

      We are also interested in Egyptian history and wanted to know if it's possible to visit the Saqqara as well Deir Al Medina as an add on.
