What are the level of accommodations like?

What is the difference between booking on Tour Radar versus your own Intrepid website?

Can my daughter go? She'll be 14 years

We are unable to accept passengers who fall outside of the minimum/maximum age limit for this trip.

Can I book private rooms for just myself on this tour?

A single supplement is available from $1,360 if you'd prefer to have your own room on this trip. The single supplement applies to all nights on your trip and is subject to availability.

Is this price for 2 people, or for 1?

AUD $ 3,804 is the price per person, in a twin share room. If you were looking to travel solo but have a private room, the single supplement would cost an additional AUD $ 1,315.

What is the price for a group of 5-6 adults

The current price for the 15th March 2023 is USD $2,350 per person. And if anyone would be wanting a single supplement so they can have their own room it would be an additional $875 per person.

Looking through the reviews and someone mentioned this trip was actually from a company called Egypt 7000 and not Intrepid. How does this work?

While Intrepid is the tour operator, they partner with local companies in order to offer in-depth, exciting optional excursions for the tour during the free time periods. The tour itself is operated by Intrepid and you will be accompanied by a professional Intrepid guide with you for the duration of the tour.

I wasn't told I'd be the only traveller on the tour, which was very disappointing. There was a lot of free time and not much to do, just be aware of this. You get hassled a lot by the locals, not just in the markets (avoid) but also on the streets, which are heavily polluted, dirty and unhygienic. The sights are ok, but done very quickly. The itinerary could easily be reduced to half the time. Alexandria is a pointless visit too.Show more

Hi Hasan - we are sorry you didn't get the experience you expected on your trip to Egypt with us. We can see that you were the only traveller on your trip due to last minute cancellations. Our trips are set to run with a minimum number of one traveller to avoid cancelling on our customers at the last minute. However, this is not common and you should have been notified before joining. We are currently reviewing our internal processes to ensure should this situation occur again our customers will be notified and provided alternative options where appropriate. Thank you for sharing your feedback on the itinerary, we will make sure this is shared with relevant personnel to be reviewed. We can see you are already in touch with our customer care team to address your concerns. Once again, we are sorry this was not the experience you expected, but we hope you will allow us another chance and join us on another adventure soon.

Tour guide Walleed was very good. Very knowledgeable and helpful. We had mixed views about the trip. Obviously the history and monuments are wonderful. Accommodations and food were just okay. One real issue was the overnight train trip from Cairo to Aswan, leaving from a seedy train station on to a decrepit train in a coffin- like cabin that was dirty, freezing ( yes, freezing) and very noisy. Unable to sleep at all and really ruined the entire next day because we were exhausted. This is a " real life experience" that should be avoided.Show more
